Characteristics of Wine
Wine produced with Chardonnay Sauvignon and Traminer grapes. With a straw yellow color and intense aromas typical of these vines as well as the slight vanilla aromas of the vinification in wood, this wine also has a persistent and intense impact on the palate given by the right balance between flavor and acidity. It goes well with cheese dishes such as Tuscan pecorino or even pasta dishes with white meats. Also excellent as an aperitif.
