Product details
- The Nose (Aroma): Elegant, gentle, and refreshing. It opens with an aromatic blueprint reminiscent of a fresh early summer forest or a cool mountain breeze. Subtle hints of green apple, underripe melon, and wild field herbs are framed by a clean, starchy rice undertone.
- The Palate (Flavor): Extremely precise and dry. Upon entry, it displays a brief, faint flash of natural rice sweetness on the tip of the tongue that is instantly overtaken by a deep, savory mineral core. It features a crisp, sharp acidity that mimics the refreshing qualities of a dry, mineral-forward French white wine.
- The Finish: Remarkably clean and brief. It cuts off sharply with a crisp, dry snap, completely leaving the palate refreshed and completely free of any cloying sweetness or heavy aftertaste.
