Pale straw-yellow colour with greenish tinges of a crystalline aspect. Intense aroma with a fruity background overtones of apple and pineapple with folral hints, almond, hawthorn. In the mouth it is tasty and light, rich nose with pleasant aftertaste. Pleasant feeling throughout its tasting due to its openess and limpidity. It pairs well with all kinds of shellfish, fish and light patés. Serve at 7-10 ºC (45-50 ºF).
100% Macabeo
