WINEMAKER'S NOTE
Medium straw color with seductive floral aromas of
narcissus and jasmine. The palate is ripe with apricot,
white peach and guava nectar, while the honeyed finish
includes a kiss of clove spice.
This quintessential aperitif and most fashionable white
wine is a great choice with butternut squash risotto, salt
cod brandade or Saba sushi (marinated mackerel).
