Malvira’ S.S. Trinita 2020 – Roero Riserva

(organic) The wine has a pale ruby color, with slight garnet reflections. The nose is fragrant, quite complex, and offers fruity aromas, as well as a distinct tertiary hint, especially on the first nose. We first smell the notes of faded flowers, dried rose, tobacco, as well as a mineral hint (dry stone). After aeration, the wine expresses more notes of juicy fruits (raspberry, strawberry, red cherry, red currant, a touch of blackberry and blueberry), fresh flowers (rose, peony, cornflower), as well as fresh herbs (tobacco, peppermint) and spices (gray pepper, liquorice, clove). The roasted notes are represented by toasted, smoky, toasted almond and bitter cocoa. The palate is very delicate, silky, elegant and fragrant. The attack is enveloping, fruity and at the same time fresh (we find the flavors of ripe strawberry, crushed red cherry, raspberry, a hint of roasted red cherry, blackberry), complemented by the delicacy of bitter chocolate and chocolate cherry. It also expresses a fine spiciness (liquorice, cardamom, a hint of clove). In the mid-palate, we feel the notes of roasting with a good bitterness (toasted almond, coffee), fresh and dried flowers (dried rose, cornflower, lily), as well as a beautiful acidity reminiscent of citrus fruits (grapefruit). Tannins are melted, delicate and sapid, with a good bitterness of cocoa. Good persistence on the freshness and acidity.
