Pure straw-yellow in colour, on the nose this wine offers complex floral and fruit notes. Depending on the vintage and the vines harvested, from time to time the grapes offer scents of narcissus, acacia, grapefruit and tropical fruits, such as banana and papaya. There are additional herbaceous and balsamic notes, on the palate there is warmth, it is slightly sapid leaving delicate mineral notes with a touch of sage, balanced by good acidity. It is fruit driven with bright citrus acidity and white floral aromas. Drinkers enjoy orange blossoms, freshly cut limes and baked bread characters.
Great expression of a Piedmont classic.
