A typical wine from the region of Friuli. Dry, dulcet, nicely balanced, it has a pleasing yellow-straw colour with golden reflections. It has a harmonic and fruity bouquet that leaves an aftertaste of almond, wildflower and white peach notes. These aromas reiterate a full and delicate taste on the palate that is fresh, fruity and inviting.
It is perfect as an aperitif or to accompany San Daniele prosciutto crudo, soup and fish appetizers or white meat terrines.
Serving Temperature: 11 – 13 °C.
