Malgrà, Mora di Sassi 2018 – Nizza Riserva

The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity, with light garnet reflections. The nose is fragrant, complex and deep. The first nose expresses notes of leather, undergrowth, a delicate touch of mushrooms (even a hint of truffle), dried mint, eucalyptus, pine sap, as well as a floral aromas (dried rose, fresh rose, lily, lotus), slightly spicy (nutmeg, clove, gray pepper) and a delicate fruitiness (roasted red cherry, very ripe morello cherry, wild strawberry, dried cherry, crushed raspberry, dried blueberry). The palate is silky, melted, with an ample and velvety tannic structure, but quite firm, without being drying. It expresses the flavors of roasted red cherry, redcurrant jelly, wild strawberry, raspberry coulis and dried blueberry, combined with notes of dried basil, eucalyptus, peppermint, licorice, nutmeg, dried rose, lily and dried cornflower. Notes of undergrowth, leather and mushrooms (with a touch of truffle) appear in the long and sapid finish. Beautiful acidity, energy, very good balance, depth and gourmandize. An elegant and silky wine.
