Limne 2020, Tenuta Roveglia

Limne 2020, Tenuta Roveglia

Date Tasted: 6/2021

It is a perfect example of what summer wine means yet without falling short in character and quality. It is refreshing, enjoyable and accomplishes its purpose to finish the bottle without much care. 

Appearance: The colour is bright medium lemon with playful green hues. 

Nose: It is delicate and fresh with a distinctly lemon character. Some other aromas like white blossom and tropical fruit such as pineapple and mango enhance the bouquet.

Palate: It is dry with a high acidity that gives freshness. It is still showing the lemon style. It has medium body and medium aftertaste. 

Drink: Although it can stand a couple of years of ageing, it is not made for that purpose. 

Food Pairing: It is ideal as an aperitif or with green salads or with stir-fried dishes.
