Description: Bright, vivid and luminous pale pink, with lilac highlights. Stunningly direct on the nose, notes of red fruit intertwined with white flowers and hints of apricot in the background. Richly textured upon entry with great depth, a clear reflection of the work carried out with the lees. Fresh fruit throughout, with exquisite acidity that melts elegantly.
