Description

The enchantment of this “little cuteness” begins moderately but it quickly gets to the point. When the aromas start flowing from the glass, the palate is also overwhelmed with the charm of honey, peach and a touch of marmelade. Granola with sweet spices and a hint of bitterness in the aftertaste, before we are totally melted by the flattering fruits.
