Introduction:
The 2023 Adesso Cagnina di Romagna is a soft, approachable red that celebrates the easy-drinking charm of Emilia-Romagna. Smooth, fruit-forward, and lightly sweet, it’s designed for casual enjoyment and effortless pairing.

Terroir:
Produced in the Romagna hills of Emilia-Romagna, the vineyards sit on mixed clay and alluvial soils that retain warmth while promoting drainage. The region’s temperate climate, with hot days and cooling Adriatic breezes, allows grapes to ripen fully while maintaining freshness and aromatic lift.

Appearance:
Bright ruby red with violet reflections; clear and medium intensity.

Nose:
Aromas of red cherry, black raspberry, and ripe strawberry are complemented by subtle floral notes and gentle spice.

Palate:
Light to medium-bodied with juicy red and black fruit at its core. Sweet cherry and raspberry flavors lead, balanced by soft acidity and a round, velvety texture. Mild sweetness on the mid-palate enhances approachability without feeling cloying.

Finish:
Smooth and lightly sweet with lingering berry tones and a gentle spice accent. The finish is clean and supple, inviting another sip.

Food Pairing Suggestions:

• Meat dish: Spicy Italian sausage or barbecue pork with sweet glaze

• Vegetarian option: Margherita pizza or roasted red pepper pasta

• Cheese pairing: Fresh ricotta, burrata, or mild young Pecorino

Overall Impression:
The 2023 Adesso Cagnina di Romagna is an effortlessly enjoyable red—ripe, round, and delightfully smooth. Its soft texture and lightly sweet finish make it an ideal wine for casual gatherings or as an introduction to Italian reds. Serve slightly chilled for best balance and freshness.
