A typical representative of "orange wines". Full white wine, the color of which strongly resembles old gold. The aroma of the wine shows a perfect combination of fruitiness. Notes of ripe fruit dominate. In the mouth, the wine is full, warm, elegant and complex. Lots of character and a fine, long aftertaste.
Due to the high content of phenols (tannin and bitterness), this wine is an excellent companion to a wide variety of meats, from white to red.
