Poggio Paterno
Intense straw yellow with golden crystals. Citrusy and tropical smell, with a note of wild flowers, wild mint and sweet spicy allusion.
Powerful and generous on the palate, delicately balanced by a long savoury note ending with a slight bitterness.
Cold maceration, then steel and small wood.
