Definitely one for lovers of Marlborough SB. Characteristic pungent nose but with a tropical edge: grapefruit, passion fruit and green bell pepper. Rounded and smooth acidity with nice fruit sweetness gives it balance.

Yellowish-green, clear, and beautifully lively discharge. On the nose, the boxwood varietal is predominant, with a vegetal aspect between green pepper and tomato leaf, and hints of sage and thyme. Fruity notes of lime and white peach also stand out. In the mouth, it is dry and quite warm, with a nice freshness and a sapidity that supports it and allows the effects to linger on the palate.
Colore giallo verdolino scarico, cristallino e di bella vivacità. Al naso il varietale di bosso è predominante, una parte vegetale tra il peperone verde e la foglia di pomodoro, po ancora salvia e timo. Si distinguono poi note fruttate di lime e pesca bianca. In bocca è secco e abbastanza caldo, ha una bella freschezza e una sapidità che lo sostiene e permette di allungarne gli effetti sul palato.
