The result
Tasting notes: Intense straw yellow with golden reflections. Varied olfactory bouquet with fruity and floral hints of wildflowers, hawthorn and acacia, scent of medicinal herbs, light spicy touch reminiscent of green cardamom and ginger. When tasted, the freshness and flavour well combined are accompanied by a fine and well-integrated carbon dioxide. Delicate astringent finish.
Pairings: A satisfying sparkling wine, tasty and excellent to drink, a versatile accompaniment to food, should also be tried with exotic cuisine, such as a chicken and vegetable tagine.
