Perfectly mature for drinking now and over the coming years, it has an intense bouquet with pot pourri, spices, woodlands and spruce. The 6.5-hectare Renesio vineyard, north of Canale, has vines facing south and east on calcareous clay soils: this is where Malvirà’s oldest Nebbiolo vines are planted. On the palate, warm dark fruits and a grippy tannic structure emerge with incense and bitter fruits on the finish. Produced from a grape selection from the single vineyard Renesio, fermentation lasted six weeks with the wine then matured for 30 months in 450-litre French oak casks.
