Winery Review: Serena is a versatile wine with aromas of rose and an accent of rhubarb-strawberry pie. On the palate, the wine has raspberry and cherry flavors with a rich mid- palate and lingering, complex finish. Lightly "frizzante", Serena has the perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. Serve at 6-8 C in a round glass. lt is ideal with desserts especially those with fruit and also an enjoyable aperitif. [1]
Wine Folly: One of Piedmont’s most delightfully fruity and sweet red wines offers up aromas of strawberry purée, cherry sauce, milk chocolate, and candied orange peel. On the palate, wines are juicy and often made in a creamy, sparkling style to accent the sweetness in the wine. This is one of a few reds that pairs perfectly with chocolate.[2]
My Review: The Serena Sweet Red Wine by Cascina Pain d'Or is delightfully cherry rich and effervescent with a slight smooth creaminess. I likened this wine to a cherry Coca-Cola or just a general cherry soda. This flavor is so reminiscent that I would be tempted to buy this wine again with ice cream and attempt to see if you could make a wine float. This wine was gifted to me by my beloved on Valentine's and is as sweet and enticing as a a kiss.
