Straw yellow color, with greenish hues, clean, bright and transparent. On the nose it is elegant, great intensity, appearing at first balsamic and varietal aromas such as fennel, hay, cut grass and anise, which give way to hints of citrus and white fruit. In the mouth it is wide, fresh, with an intense acidity, keeping the perfect balance with the sugar.
