Taste: This wine displays a bright, pale yellow hue in the glass. On the nose, it presents aromas of pear, delicate mimosa blossom, and a subtle note of coriander. The palate is crisp and lean, featuring fresh acidity and a hint of spiciness, enhanced by a touch of honeyed fruit sweetness.
Pairing: Its fresh and racy profile pairs well with umami-rich dishes like sushi. The wine's crisp acidity and subtle sweetness also complement cuisines featuring sweet and aromatic spices, such as North African, Indian, Pakistani, and Southeast Asian dishes. It pairs wonderfully with fish tacos, where the mineral notes and fruity palate enhance the flavors.
