The “Santorini” of the Gavalas estate, through a bright yellow robe, offers a full-bodied bouquet of pear, citrus and exotic fruits. On the palate, it is complex, fat and fruity. Its discreet minerality, its beautiful acidity and its long finish contribute to giving it some style and elegance. The blue bottle and its white label recall the Aegean Sea and the whiteness of the Cycladic houses.
