Light yellow with subtle green reflections in the glass. A lively stream of fine, persistent bubbles forms an elegant mousse.

Fresh and fruity with aromas of green apple, pear and citrus. Gentle notes of banana and light florals add aromatic lift and complexity.
👅 Palate
Bright and refreshing with flavours of apple, pear and citrus fruits. The palate shows a harmonious balance between fruitiness and dryness, with lively acidity and soft sparkling texture.
⚖️ Structure
Light-to-medium bodied with crisp acidity and fine bubbles that create a smooth, refreshing mouthfeel. The style is dry but approachable, maintaining good balance between sweetness and freshness.

Clean and refreshing with lingering orchard fruit and citrus notes, finishing crisp with lively effervescence.
