    The terroir's fruity and spicy essence emerges gradually, unveiling a rounded and robust palate reminiscent of buttered brioche, adorned with notes of orchard fruit.

Beginning with a dry and flinty sensation, it evolves into flavors of acacia honey, lemon, and lime, culminating in an exceptionally long and creamy finish.
