MILLENOVECENTOVENTOTTO Lambrusco GRASPAROSSA di Castelvetro DOC CAVICCHIOLI

The Cavicchioli winery produces this sensational sparkling red wine from 100% pure vinification of fine Lambrusco Grasparossa grapes. The origin of the vine is that of the Emilia-Romagna DOC; the land falls within the area of the hills and foothills south of Modena. The deep, gravelly-sandy soil near the Panaro river, clayey in the rest of the cultivation area gives the wine the right acid note. The newly planted vines are grown with the espalier method. The vinification requires that these are vinified in red and cryomacerated at low temperature for 2-3 days; after the alcoholic fermentation of about 10-15 days on the skins in the must, with selected yeasts and a temperature of 15-18°C, there follows the refermentation, of the long Charmat type, of 4 weeks at a controlled temperature of 13-15°C.
