## Tasting notes

Pale, bright yellow with a delicate, fine perlage. Sharp aromas of fresh fern, green apples and ripe white fruit. Freshness and savouriness support the breadth on the palate, with good persistence and a delicately almond finish.

## Food pairings

Oysters, raw fish tartare and white-meat aspic, spaghetti with shellfish or asparagus risotto. Also swordfish, fish baked in parchment and gourmet white pizzas.
