2022 Cariño
Cariño – 2022 Lodi Sweet Red
Some wines whisper sweet nothings—Cariño means every word. Rich, smooth, and surprisingly complex, this sweet red opens with layers of black cherry, blackberry preserves, dark chocolate, and warm baking spice. While its natural sweetness makes it easy to love, there’s plenty happening beneath the surface, creating a wine that’s as intriguing as it is approachable.
Velvety and full-bodied, Cariño delivers the richness and depth you’d expect from a fine Port-style wine, but with a softer, more easygoing personality. Whether paired with chocolate desserts, aged cheeses, or enjoyed on its own after dinner, it’s the perfect way to end the night—or start a memorable conversation.
This is a conventional red wine. Don't usually like sweet red wine but curious how this can be incorporated into a dessert course? Try it...I'm selling way more of this than I expected including folks that don't normally like sweetness in their wines.
Perfect with: chocolate cake, flan, cheesecake, blue cheese, or stealing a quiet moment after everyone else has gone home.
