Description

The powder-like softness of almond flower fills up the space. It sneaks in with sweetish charm and vanilla aromas showing what happiness would look like in your glass if it had a body. This wine enchants your tasting buds with nice acidity and sun ripened yellow fruits, and at the same time with some fierceness and bitter almond ornaments. You will surrender to this wine.
