The wine is clear, with pale lemon-green color, and thick legs.
On the nose the wine is clean, with medium plus primary aroma intensity of ripe white citrus fruits, lemon, grapefruit, ripe tropical fruits, guava, papaya, herbaceous, hints of ammonia, almost cat pee like.
On the palate the wine is dry, with medium plus acidity, medium alcohol, medium body, medium plus primary flavor intensity of ripe white fruits, melon, green fruits, gooseberries, ripe tropical fruits, lemon, grapefruit. Finish is long.
The wine is of a very good quality, as it is showing great balance between fruit concentration, acidity and minerality across end palate.
It was expressive enough at time of tasting, but still predominant by primary notes, thus can benefit from couple more years of bottle aging.
