Overview: This dry Lambrusco is made from premium grapes selected in the vines of Azienda Agricola Chiarli of Sozzigalli (Sorbara), located in the fertile soils of northern Modena. Lambrusco di Sorbara is regarded as one of the highest quality clone due to its intensified aromatics. Wine is produced in accordance with the highest standards of quality that Cleto Chiarli designed more than 140 years ago. It is made by a light maceration followed by racking into tank for primary fermentation and then a slow secondary fermentation in closed tanks. Aromatically the wine is bright, racy, and a touch salty with notes of dehydrated strawberries and fresh herbs. On the palate the bubbles are very fine, with mouthwatering acidity, and just barely ripened red fruit flavors.
Tasting Notes: Intense, enticing aromas of wild red berries, crushed herbs, citrus and white rose come to the forefront on this lovely sparkler. Thoroughly enjoyable, the lithe, savory palate features juicy strawberry, red cherry and orange zest before closing on a hint of fennel seed. Bright acidity and a polished mousse provide freshness and a smooth texture.
Pairing: Root vegetables and squashes
