Tags: golden amber mango apricot grass nettles lychee banana herbs coconut honey creamy
Food pairing: Italian goat's cheese, works very well!
Remarkable rich amber golden colour. Nose - tropical fruit, mango, apricot, cut grass, nettles. Palate - lychee, banana. Long finish - herbaceous, coconut, reminiscent of honey. Voluptuous, generous, creamy, good tart acidity, great balance. Interesting wine, not easily reminiscent of Chardonnay. I suspect Grecanico is the dominant of the two varieties.
