About wine:
This crispy Malvazija is straw-colored with golden shades. At first glimpse looks rich, with the legs that slowly slip down by the glass and predict a luxurious body. On the nose grassy and fruity at the same time, with a touch of flint and Mediterranean macchia, ripe apples and tropical fruits. In the mouth is luxurious, warm, mineral, with moderate acidity, smooth and harmonious. This wine is a greeting to the burning sun with warm notes of liquorice, nectar rich flowers, mature fruits, specially peaches, apples and pears with distinct saltiness.

Recommended:
as an aperitif with different snacks or finger food, fried sea food, mussels with gentle sauce and fried potatoes (moules-frittes); canapés with cold marinated trout, grayling or salmon, vegetable tartines or pancakes with herbs; tuna tartar and risotto with peas (rice-bizi), vegetable minestrones and various white grilled meat. Serve at 10°C.
