Bianco Angelo, Bricco Cova 2020 – Nizza

The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity. The first nose is subtle and finely spicy. It expresses notes of grated nutmeg, cloves, licorice (with a slight hint of star anise) and fresh vanilla. We then find the floral notes of fresh rose, peony, rosehip and iris, as well as a gourmand and juicy fruitiness and discreet milky notes (cherry yogurt, juicy morello cherry, wild strawberry, redcurrant jelly, crushed fresh raspberry, fresh blueberry) and fine roasted notes (toasted oak, toasted hazelnut), combined with a touch of pine needles. The palate is enveloping, juicy and concentrated. It expresses notes of crushed wild strawberry, fresh morello cherry, red cherry jam, crushed raspberry, cherry jam and blackcurrant, with a fine milky touch of cherry yogurt and a delicate spiciness (fresh vanilla, licorice, cumin, clove) and a floral touch of peony and iris. The tannins are tight, but fine and well structured. Beautiful salivating acidity, juiciness and generous fruit, but fresh on the persistent finish. A pleasant and structured wine, with lots of gourmandise.
