Tasting Note
Round, creamy and fleshy but still with a lively acidity, this is no vanilla bomb. The tropical and stone fruit come first followed by the signature texture and feel.
Food Matching
Officially the perfect wine for Japanese cuisine. So versatile, this wine would pair well with any aromatic and fish dishes.
