Aromas of elderflower, pomegranate, lime, mango, and a refreshing sea breeze evoke the essence of an island summer. The medium-bodied palate is crisp and fresh, leading to a dry, spicy finish. The wine's textural appeal shines, with a smooth, apricot-like experience from skin contact and acacia barrel aging. Its vibrant acidity and well-integrated structure make it a delightful and versatile wine that stands out on its own or pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes. Perfect with cheesy baked oysters, leeks, and garlic.
