The wine
What does this wine taste like?
Pale in colour and with tiny, lively bubbles, its nose offers an amazing first contact, mingling the smell of hay with hints of quince and peach. Soon lactic aromas emerge which, combined with the citric touches, can bring to mind home-made lemon yoghurt. The minerality sensation is very intense from the first olfactory contact and its complexity makes itself felt at all times. The aromas don't stop evolving, before long reminiscent of floury biscuit and white flowers. On the palate it's at once expansive and fresh, with an acidity that's more typical of Champagne or of other sparkling wines from cool climates, having a wonderful and enchanting effervescence.

Drinking and storing
We recommend serving it in a white wine glass, and after a light airing in order to appreciate all its elegance to the full. It will continue to develop in bottle.
