Attractively straw coloured with shimmering glints of green. An abundance of fresh fruit and floral aromas ranges from fragrant white peach and dried pear to vibrant citrus blossom and spicy jasmine. A multi-facetted palate zinging with flavour: ripe peach and apricot enhanced by sprightly acidity mingle joyously with the creamy character of coconut milk and the nuttiness of almond. A finely nuanced wine artfully blended to offer vivacity as well as elegance and finesse.
