Bright pale yellow colour with a green nuance, powerful aromas of elder and acacia flower, passion fruit, lime intert wined with herbal notes to the nose. The palate is complexed with hints of white currant, melon and stone fruit, underpinned by zesty acidity and a delicate flinty aftertaste.
Cellaring potential: 3 – 5 years.
