Tasting Notes: This white wine has a very lively straw yellow color with delicate golden reflections in the glass. The nose releases hints of tropical and citrus fruit, white flowers, and saline puffs. Finally, the sip is fresh and light; its compulsive drinking leads those who taste it to consume one glass after another. Skila is a delicate wine that can be selected for a refreshing summer aperitif or as a companion to dinners where the protagonists are fish or seafood first courses.
