Appellation & Region: A DOC Delight

This Lambrusco hails from the Grasparossa di Castelvetro DOC in Emilia Romagna, a region renowned for its culinary and vinicultural excellence.

Producer: A Legacy of Quality

Produced by CHIARLI 1860, the oldest Lambrusco producer in Emilia Romagna, this wine is a testament to over 150 years of winemaking expertise. Through meticulous grape selection and scrupulous care at every production stage, CHIARLI guarantees a range of prestigious wines that are the pride of Emilia-Romagna.

Characteristics: A Fruity Froth

Pour a glass, and you'll be greeted by a semi-sweet wine with an intensely red color and a lively, fading froth of strong rosé. The aroma? Think vinous and fruity, a bouquet that promises a delightful sip.

Alcohol Content & Grape Variety: A Light Sip

With an alcohol content of just 8% vol., this Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro is a lighter option that doesn't skimp on flavor.

Vinification: Crafted with Care

The grapes undergo traditional pressing and a 36-hour long maceration. Fermentation takes place at 18°-20°C, followed by a second fermentation in "cuves closes" to achieve that signature sparkle.

Serving Temperature: Keep It Cool

For the best experience, serve this Lambrusco at a cool 10°-12°C. Trust us, the temperature makes all the difference.

Accompaniments: A Culinary Companion

This wine is a perfect match for traditional Emilia cuisine and puddings in general. Imagine sipping it alongside a plate of tortellini or a decadent tiramisu.
