Tasting Note: On the nose this wine reveals great balance between complexity, freshness and well integrated oak, highlighting saline notes, fresh butter, citric fruits and wet stone. On the palate it shows itself rich and elegant, with excellent concentration and multi-layered. Mineral notes, hazelnut, tree fruits and citrines show up. Long, persistent finish along with a firm acidity. It will age well in bottle.
