Description
What kind of wine it is
Leclisse Paltrinieri is an elegant dry rosé wine with controlled designation of origin from Emilia-Romagna, produced using the Charmat Method, which expresses the vitality of Lambrusco di Sorbara. It stands out for its pale pink colour and a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it reveals aromas of white flowers, hawthorn and wild strawberry, combined with hints of raspberry and vanilla, while on the palate it is dry, characterised by a pronounced acidity and a vibrant savoury drive. The finish is fresh and taut, making it perfect as an aperitif and ideal paired with oysters, fish tartare and typical Emilian cured meats.
Where it comes from
This wine originates from the Modena area, in the historic locality of Cristo di Sorbara. The vineyards thrive between the Secchia and Panaro rivers, on sandy alluvial and silty soils that impart the typical mineral drive. The Lambrusco di Sorbara grape variety is renowned for its millerandage, a floral peculiarity that reduces yields in favour of greater quality concentration. Paltrinieri cultivates these lands with dedication, carrying on a rigorous family-run agricultural management. A meticulous job that faithfully reflects the authenticity of the local terroir in every glass.
How it is produced
The harvest takes place in mid-September, followed by a rigorous white vinification. Only the free-run must is used, avoiding contact and maceration with the skins. The second fermentation in a pressurised tank takes place using the Charmat method for at least three months. This process, combined with an equally long period on the lees, defines the structure and gives particularly silky bubbles. The result preserves the brilliant natural acidity, ensuring a taut, clean sip with a pleasantly fruity persistence.
History and Curiosities
Born in the Modena area to honour the legacy of grandfather Achille, dating back to 1926, Lambrusco di Sorbara Paltrinieri expresses the excellence of the sandy terroir between the Secchia and Panaro rivers. This refined sparkling rosé, produced using the Charmat Method, encapsulates the dedication of three generations, enhancing a native grape variety characterised by its peculiar berry set, which concentrates its quality. The wine is consistently awarded prestigious accolades such as the Tre Bicchieri.
