Tasting - La Sera Red Malvasia

La Sera Red Malvasia

Variety: Red Malvasia (100%)
Region: Piedmont
Country: Italy
Year: 
Price: $13.95
Shop review: A specialty of Italy's Piedmont region, Red Malvasia di Casorzo is fragrant and fruity, moderately sweet wine. It has strawberry and fresh grape flavors, with a zesty frizzante (fizz). It is low in alcohol (5.5%) and best served slightly chilled. Enjoy as an aperitif, matched with spicy barbeque or Oriental dishes. It is also excellent with rich chocolate cake or a fruity sorbet.
My review: Sweet on the nose, smells like fresh berries (strawberries, raspberries, etc.). On the mid-palate, very sweet! Tastes like pure berries, reminds me of the taste of strawberry jam. Very interesting.
I did not have food with this tasting.
