Tasting Notes
An abundance of tropical flavours of passion fruit, guava and banana, combined with the typical, fresh, herbaceous aromas of nettles. In the mouth, the fullness of the wine is complemented by ripe fruit flavours with a well-rounded balance and a long, lingering aftertaste of green fig and sweet pepper.
Food Suggestions
This wine will be an excellent accompaniment to most sea food dishes as well as chicken and lamb.
