## Tasting notes

The wine has an intense yellow colour with golden highlights. On the nose, Mediterranean scrubland aromas emerge, with notes of sage, thyme, lemon blossom and iodine. On the palate it stands out for its pronounced acidity, paired with minerality and salinity that give fullness and good length.
