Coronica Ottaviano is the modern reproduction of the Malvasia that father Ottaviano knew and made. The drinkability that we expect from Malvasia is there. But there is also complexity, a progression on the palate that opens up new and new layers… an intense herbal moment, tea, anise, and vinousness that ends with a soft salinity in the aftertaste. Ottaviano Malvazija is very delicate but also firm, with sharp and persistent minerality in the mouth. It is also unexpectedly elegant and refreshing for a Malvasia of pronounced maturity. Notes of ripe quince and spicy notes linger on the nose, with mild bitterness, salinity and a kind of rusticity of traditional and domestic, delicately macerated wines leave impression in the mouth.
