La Trava is a boutique winery in Piemonte, dedicated to crafting elegant, terroir-driven expressions of Nebbiolo. Their Langhe Nebbiolo Magnum 2022 is a fresh and vibrant take on this noble variety, offering a more approachable style than Barolo or Barbaresco while maintaining Nebbiolo’s signature complexity. Sourced from younger vines and aged primarily in stainless steel, this large-format bottling preserves the wine’s bright fruit character and lively acidity. The magnum size ensures slower ageing, allowing the wine to develop gracefully while maintaining its freshness.

Appearance: Brilliant ruby red with delicate garnet reflections, showcasing its youthful vibrancy. The wine is translucent and luminous, with a medium concentration that highlights its elegance. Swirling reveals fine, well-formed legs, suggesting a balanced alcohol level and refreshing acidity.

Aroma: Expressive and inviting, with fresh red cherries, wild strawberries, and dried rose petals at the forefront. Floral hints of violets and subtle notes of orange zest add brightness, while a touch of earthiness and dried herbs provide complexity. With time, delicate traces of white pepper and liquorice emerge, enhancing its layered bouquet.

Taste: Silky and well-balanced, with a core of juicy red berries, including sour cherry, raspberry, and cranberry. Vibrant acidity keeps the palate fresh, while soft, well-integrated tannins provide structure without overwhelming the fruit. Mid-palate notes of dried thyme, anise, and a hint of minerality add depth, creating a refined and elegant drinking experience.

Finish: Clean and refined, with lingering red fruit, floral notes, and a subtle savoury edge. The tannins are polished yet present, ensuring the wine will continue to evolve in the magnum format. A final touch of rose petals, citrus zest, and a whisper of spice leaves a fresh, well-balanced impression.

Food Pairing: Pairs beautifully with duck and porcini mushroom risotto, where the wine’s acidity cuts through the dish’s richness while complementing its earthy depth. Also an excellent match with aubergine parmigiana, as the wine’s bright fruit and freshness balance the tomato and cheese’s savoury elements.
