Golden yellow with a brilliant hue—radiant and expressive.

👃 On the Nose:
Aromatic and inviting. Lime marmalade, guava, and melon dominate the bouquet, supported by notes of toasted oak, vanilla, and a touch of hazelnut.

Medium to full-bodied and creamy. Tropical fruit flavours are wrapped in a silky texture with a mineral undertone and a beautifully integrated nutty oak profile. The finish is soft, succulent, and enduring.

Perfect with rich seafood like lobster or seared scallops, roast chicken, creamy pastas, or mushroom risotto. A natural match for full-flavoured dishes.
