## Summary

Made in collaboration with 8pari, an organisation for the social and employment inclusion of people with disabilities.

## Tasting notes

Light straw yellow colour. Fine and persistent perlage. Bouquet of delicate hints of bread crust, candied citrus fruits, honey and toasted hazelnuts. In the mouth all the elements combine in a pleasant and complex expression. Very elegant, balanced and delicately savoury.

## Food pairings
