The fruity aromas of apricot, mandarin and passion fruit stand out, overlapping with the aromatic olfactory components of elderflower, gooseberry and mint. |
| Taste |
On the palate, the fruity taste already perceived in the bouquet is confirmed, accompanied by a delicate acidity. What is most convincing is the good structure and the aftertaste, mineral and at the same time rich in aromas. |

| Food pairings |
In spring, an interesting pairing of this wine is with boiled white asparagus on Bolzano sauce, or even with steamed green asparagus. Otherwise, tuna carpaccio, smoked salmon or raw scampi. A typical South Tyrolean combination is with nettle dumplings, with steamed trout on mixed vegetables, or with unripe goat cheese. |
