Crisp and bright, opening with light yeast character, berry-apple fruit and faint vanilla. The wine has a creamy texture and a lingering finish of citrus, berry and light toast.

Very pale straw color with tiny bubbles. Aromas of green apple, citrus and white flowers. On the palate, it is dry with a delicate body and crisp, refreshing acidity. Great balance and a lingering, elegant finish.
