Adesso Cagnina Di Romagna

Adesso Cagnina Di Romagna 750ml

Fall in love with the sweeter side of Italian winemaking with Adesso Cagnina Di Romagna. Translated directly from Italian, "Adesso" means "Now"—a perfectly fitting name for a wine that demands to be opened, shared, and enjoyed in the present moment. If you are searching for a red wine that bypasses aggressive, mouth-drying tannins in favor of pure, luscious fruit expression, this charming bottle from the sun-drenched hills of Italy is your perfect match.

Crafted in the historic Emilia-Romagna region of northern Italy, this wine is made from 100% Refosco grapes (locally referred to as Cagnina). The Cagnina di Romagna DOC designation is a highly protected title, legally requiring the wine to be produced within a strictly defined zone and harvested at peak ripeness to retain its naturally high sugar content. In fact, local traditions dating back to the 13th century celebrate Cagnina as a seasonal treat, enjoyed fresh off the press during autumn harvest festivals.

To create its uniquely approachable profile, winemakers employ a gentle, temperature-controlled fermentation process that is intentionally halted before all the natural grape sugars can convert into alcohol. This masterful technique achieves two things perfectly: it preserves a delightfully rich, jammy sweetness and keeps the alcohol level remarkably low at just 9% ABV. The result is a light-to-medium-bodied, incredibly smooth sweet Italian red wine that offers a refreshing alternative to heavy, bone-dry varietals.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: A gorgeous, deep ruby red with vibrant violet reflections that shimmer beautifully in the glass.

• Aroma (Nose): An absolute fruit bomb. It opens with an intense, fragrant bouquet of fresh wild berries, ripe black cherries, and wild raspberries, with a delicate hint of red floral petals.

• Palate: Unabashedly sweet, velvety, and smooth. The tongue is treated to rich flavors of liquid blackberry jam, sweet pomegranate, and dark plum. The natural sweetness is beautifully balanced by a gentle, underlying crispness that prevents it from feeling cloying.

• Finish: Clean, soft, and immensely satisfying. The fruit flavors slowly taper off, leaving a pleasant, lingering memory of sweet red berries without any heavy or drying wood tannins.

Serving Suggestions & Food Pairings

Thanks to its low alcohol content and vibrant sweetness, Adesso Cagnina Di Romagna is incredibly versatile. While traditional red wines are served at room temperature, this sweet red breaks the rules in the best way possible.

• The Perfect Chill: For the ultimate tasting experience, serve this wine chilled (around 45°F to 50°F). Chilling enhances its crispness and makes the bright berry flavors pop.

• The Spicy Match: The natural residual sugar makes it a legendary pairing for spicy cuisines. Try it alongside spicy Thai noodles, fiery Buffalo wings, or intensely seasoned Mexican dishes—the sweetness naturally tames the heat.

• Dessert & Cheese: It shines beautifully next to a classic Italian charcuterie board featuring salty cured meats and aged cheeses like Gorgonzola. Alternatively, pair it with fruit-forward desserts like dark chocolate-covered strawberries, raspberry tarts, or blackberry cobbler.
