Description
This wine has a delicate and fresh nose, with plenty of lemon and a hint of roasted hazelnut. The palate has a pleasing weight and texture, but continues to be refreshing. The lemony flavours are bolstered by a delicious touch of lemon curd and toasted breadcrumb. The finish is refined, with the result of a little skin contact lingering pleasantly on the teeth. Perfect as an aperitif, or with lighter chicken dishes.
