Pale yellow colour with greenish tinges, complex bouquet, marked by ripe fruit, jam, and hazelnut. The flavour is full, revealing its good structure. Its surprising character is felt in the mounth: a rich, intense and persistent flavour, with distinct notes of ripe fruit, and vanilla, with a pleasant and very long-lasting taste of roast hazelnut.
