The must is cooled for 48 hours to clarify the juice, then it is fermented for a minimum of 2 weeks at around 16°.
The wine is matured on its lees and stirred regularly for greater complexity. Final blending takes place in mid-January.
A light gold colour with green tints. The nose reveals soft aromas of quince, honey and spice combined with fresher aromas of citrus fruit. Fine and elegant.
The mouth is fleshy and fresh.
Aromas of white fruit appear beside more original ones such as mango and ginger.
