Winery Review: Malvasia di Castelnuovo don Bosco is a DOC for sweet, sparkling, red and rose wines from the very center of Piedmont, in north-west Italy. All wine produced under this title is based on a minimum of 85% Malvasia grapes, in this case Malvasia de Schierano. The remaining 15% can be made up with the light, strawberry-scented Freisa, a grape variety undergoing something of a renaissance at present.
My Review: I like sweet wines, so I loved this one. It had a cherry-color red, and had a hint of cherry taste. The smell was fruity and slightly Because it was so fruity and had pretty much no heat, it tasted almost like carbonated fruit juice. Full body, full flavor. Definitely would recommend as a dessert wine, but I didn't try it with any food.
