Slightly muscat and melon-like top notes.
The same slightly fruity aroma as on the top, firm rice flavor and good sweetness spreads with a rather firm lactic acidity, and finishes with a moderate bitterness.
It has a strong umami of rice, but it is not too sweet, and the assertive acidity makes it easy to drink.
It goes well with meals and is also delicious on its own.
