This wine is slightly more subdued and downplayed compared to the other protagonists of the Malvirà portfolio. The 2015 Roero Riserva Renesio takes small and steady steps to increased intensity, with dried cherry and forest berry framed by camphor ash and powdered licorice. The tannins are drier here, and the wine is a bit more astringent overall.
