The wines are complex, yet thanks to their salty minerality and juicy acidity, they are characterized by pleasant freshness. Depending on the vintage, one might detect more or less botrytis, sometimes even petroleum notes, spiciness, or herbal aromas. The palate delights with ripe apples, pears, apricots, and occasionally hints of tropical fruit. The aftertaste is always pleasant and long.
