It displays a straw yellow colour with greenish highlights, revealing a broad and well-defined aromatic profile. Intense \u003cstrong\u003efruity notes of peach\u003c\/strong\u003e and mandarin emerge, accompanied by fresh hints of sage. On the palate, it is enveloping and mineral, with a pleasant warmth balanced by lively acidity. This balance leads the sip towards a \u003cstrong\u003epersistent floral finish\u003c\/strong\u003e of rose and wisteria, offering a harmonious experience true to the nature of the grape variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaif originates in western Sicily, among the hills of Marsala at around three hundred metres above sea level, a microclimate ideal for preserving the aromatic freshness of the grapes.
