Delicate, elegant golden yellow with silvery reflections.

Nose

The 2019 Aurora Bianco beguiles the taster immediately on the nose honeycomb is accompanied by sweet fruit reminiscent of melon, pear jam, stewed quince and dried mango. The whole is in harmony with cedar wood notes, anise, dried meadow flowers, innumerable herbs and white nougat. A charming start and incredibly fresh and challenging first impression.

Palate

On the tongue, one perceives melting and density combined with an invigorating freshness and delicate pleasant citrus notes. Its juicy fruit, which seems almost more present on the palate than on the nose, envelops the palate. An incredibly powerful and animating drop with pleasantly provocative spice in the finish.
