Tasting Malvasia di Casorzo

 Name: Malvasia di Casorzo

Variety of the grapes: Malvasia

Country of origin: Italy

Region of origin: Piedmont

Vintage year: 2021

Price: $13.95


Vintage Cellar: “Sweet, but not too sweet, with balanced acidity. Nice round red fruit of cherries and strawberries. Aromas of roses and a lingering fruity finish. This wine is not fully sparkling, but had a slightly effervesce.”

Wine Folly: This win is a dessert wine and is on the lower end of alcohol percentage. Page 22 of the text discusses the alcohol in various wines. I definitely tased the fruitiness of the wine and smelled the cherry aroma. Aroma scales are discuses on page 30 of the text. This wine belongs to the red fruit wine category. 

My Review: OH MY LANTA... This may be my favorite wine so far. I know that it is my second wine, but heck I said what I said. The combination of a sweet cherry flavor and the carbonation in the wine was delightful. One thing that I observed is that the warmer the wine was (the longer I held the wine glass in my hand), the sweeter the cheery flavor. I also paired this wine with summer sausage (same reason, I was a little hungry ha-ha) and noticed the pairing make everything taste a little richer. This is a 100% recommend!
