The Sardinian grape variety takes flight and shows its potential to excite with this nicely nuanced, vibrant youngster. Sweet citrus floral scents join apple blossom, pear, apple and almond. Crisp, clean and bright throughout, the palate comes with a dry, grapefruit pithy tartness – bracing yet gentle – and together with crunchy acidity this wine is made for the aperitivo hour.
