Description

It is well known that Lambrusco finds its full expression when served cold. The fact that the serving temperature is recommended at extreme, almost icy temperatures is a condition that only the genius of Cantine Ceci could achieve. Enhancing the hard notes of this wine, while keeping in the background the softness of the residual sugar, is a sensory and technical operation that takes us back to the extreme practicality of taste, where surprise and desire are as transparent as ice.

The soft and deep entry leaves room for a precise and elegant tannic texture. The good freshness and pleasant savouriness are well integrated with notes of ripe red fruit and slight hints of citrus. An intriguing closure that invites you to drink.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1938
  • Oenologist: Alessandro Ceci
  • Bottles produced: 260.000
Cantine Ceci was founded by Otello Ceci. It all began in 1938 in Otello's trattoria, where guests enjoyed the best tripe in the province of Parma and where he sold the Lambrusco he made from grapes he would buy from local farmers. His sons Giovanni and Bruno were still children but they already knew how excited their father would become when it was time to press the grapes during the harvest.

They closed their restaurant and launched Cantine Ceci, and set out on their adventure in the world of wine, the beginning of a tradition that would evolve over the years as the Ceci brothers discovered their love for grape growing, for wine, and for those poetic bubbling casks that inspired and shaped their goals and aspirations.

Today, Otello's grandchildren run the family business: Alessandro, Maria Teresa, Maria Paola, Elisa, and Chiara. They represent the new spirit of the winery as they continue to build on their family's past achievements, creating an even richer winemaking tradition for the generations that follow.

Their goal is that of allowing the appellation to express everything that this land has to give. They aim for top quality with the products that they put out into the market. They constantly reach for innovation in their products, whether in the flavour profile or in the packaging. They sell their sparkling wines and their flagship Otello NeroDiLambrusco in a square-shaped bottle, an entirely new and unique way to present the wines.

The rapid expansion of the winery began in the 1990s with the launch of its Lambrusco Terre Verdiane, a wine that created renewed interest in the grape variety. All of this and the deep local roots of the Ceci family keep Cantine Ceci closely connected to the appellation. This relationship allows the Ceci family members not to be afraid when it comes to expanding their business. They work together every day knowing that they believe in their values and that not one of them would live or work anywhere else.
