    The team's opinion

    A direct and saline attack. The texture is both ample and creamy, yet carried by a crystalline acidity that lengthens the wine. The aging in French oak barrels is perfectly integrated, providing an almost imperceptible woody structure that blends seamlessly with flavors of brioche and nougat.
