Aromas of lemon peel, green apple, and white flowers are layered with subtle notes of toasted almond, fresh bread, and mineral undertones. The palate is crisp and focused, with lively acidity driving flavors of citrus, orchard fruit, and a faint saline edge. Extended lees aging contributes fine texture and complexity, while the absence of dosage enhances the wine’s precision and dryness. The mousse is elegant and persistent, leading to a clean, refreshing finish marked by minerality and subtle autolytic depth.
