With a citrus yellow color with greenish reflections , it presents a delicate aroma of melon flowers, white-fleshed fruits and subtle notes of vanilla from its aging in wood. In the mouth, it surprises with its vibrant acidity , perfectly balanced by the unctuousness and structure provided by the 8 months of aging “sur lies” in French oak barrels with acacia tops .
