Inspired by ancestral methods, the orange character is given by its oxidative elaboration process and its subsequent aging in a french oak barrel. The orange character is caused by the contact of the wine with the skins of the grapes.
A blend that complements well in mouth and nose, resembling a fresh white wine with floral aromas, nice acidity and elegance.
