Le Rocche Malatestiane is a wine cooperative
that was established in 1994 by the merging of the most ancient vine-growing and
wine-producing structures of the Rimini province. The cooperative was named after the Rimini rule
of Sigismondo
Pandolfo Malatesti, the most famous figure of the family, lord of
Rimini in 1400. Today, there are 990 vine-growing members
managing 800 hectares (about 2000 acres) of vineyards.
Nobody knows from where the name Cagnina comes, but this wine has been made since the 13th century exclusively in the Emilia Romgna Region, just south of Venice, in Italy. "Adesso," which means "now" in Italian, is a wine that is easy to love. Tasting notes: Pleasantly sweet, Adesso’s berry aromas and flavors are impossible to resist. Low in alcohol, Adesso is a fun and easy to drink red wine for those who prefer their wines “off dry”. |
