On the nose, it presents notes of green apple, white peach, and citrus zest, complemented by subtle floral hints and a touch of toasted almond.

A clean, refreshing finish with a hint of salinity adds depth and complexity. This wine is approachable now and has the potential to develop further with short-term cellaring over the next 3–5 years. |
