Description
A classic method brut sparkling wine from the heart of Emilia-Romagna, produced by Cavicchioli. 100% Lambrusco di Sorbara, a varietal that expresses all its elegance and freshness in this classic method.

This is followed by a second fermentation in the bottle according to the classic method, with the wine remaining on the lees for 18 months. Bright, light ruby red with scarlet highlights. Airy on the palate, a bold flavor with notes of red fruit and a vibrant, harmonious acidity typical of the varietal.

The must is then extracted, separating it into different parts that are homogeneous in terms of characteristics and quality: from the first, which is more elegant and richer from an organoleptic point of view, to the final, full of colour and fragrance. The different masses are then fermented separately before proceeding to create the cuvée by blending the selected parts. |
