These aromas are complemented by hints of mineral and flint, adding complexity to the wine. The palate is crisp and lively, with a zesty acidity that brings out the citrus flavors. There is a good balance between the fruitiness and the mineral character, creating a harmonious and refreshing taste. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a pleasant sensation on the palate.
