Нос зажат, вкус собран. Кипарис, лимон, желтый грейпфрут, зелёный абрикос, сухие средиземноморские травы, морская вода. Среднее тело, хорошая кислотность, упругая структура, длительное солёное послевкусие. На грани жаркости. Ещё молодо, несложно, но чисто, небанально, с несколько суровой естественностью.

Richer than the regular Bianco. Less salty and more savory components. Tastes like a phenolic Rhone whites I've had with a little bitter finish

Lovely blend of richness and minerality, with some floral notes and umami on the palate for good measure.
