"ADESSO," CAGNINA DI ROMAGNA, DOC, 2006
Le Rocche Malatestiane

Le Rocche Malatestiane

This is the EXACT same wine as the Camauro. The wine comes from the same source --- only the bottlers and packaging has changed. This is the wine that's easy to fall in love with "adesso" (which means "now" in Italian). 

Nobody knows where the name "Cagnina" (cahn-yee-nah) comes from but it is known that the wine has been made only in the Romagna region, just south of Venice since the 13th century, and that it was even called Cagnina in those days.

Tasting notes: Grapey, jammy smooth as silk and unctuously sweet.
