Metodo Ancestrale (also called Pet Nat) is a natural form of fermentation in the bottle, but without the addition of a dosage. This second fermentation in the bottle stops automatically due to the natural consumption of oxygen. The wine is not shaken and then disgorged as in the Champagne process, but is usually put on sale on its lees.

Dark pink with purple reflections. On the nose, ripe raspberries with a delicate note of elderberries. On the palate, the taut acid structure combined with precise fruit components such as raspberry, cassis, sloe and a hint of citrus are convincing. Although the residual sugar has been completely fermented, this Lambrusco is still fruity, drinky and an exceptional pleasure with every sip! SUPERIORE.DE

The winery recommended it with Tortellini in Brodo - we can only agree, perfect match. SUPERIORE.DE

Out with the clichés, in with the surprise! The Paltrinieris' most famous Lambrusco growth will also fill every connoisseur with joy.

This naturally cloudy, dry Frizzante already convinces in the bouquet with notes of rhubarb, a fresh citrus note and some bread. The persistent, fine perlage and its drinkynature make it a racy companion to hearty, spicy antipasti, light meat dishes or simply an upbeat celebration surrounded by nature and happy people. SUPERIORE.DE

"The extremely elegant Lambrusco di Sorbara Radice 2022 is a pretty pink with orange highlights. It opens with a blend of orange zest, tangerine and cracked slate. A silky bead of bubbles unfolds on the palate, contrasted by a sour burst of citrus, while exotic florals and candied ginger nuances swirl through the nose. A subtle hint of grapefruit emerges on the crisp, refreshing final as the 2022 slowly tapers off. This Radice is a blockbuster. Enjoy it chilled for instant gratification, or let it warm slowly in a large glass with a bowl." Vinous

"A Sorbara vinified in purity never before dared, in a very relevant reading. A nose of wild strawberry and pepper leaf, with floral notes of iris, the mouthfeel is taut, savoury, with a fruity return and length." Luca Gardini

"The 2022 Lambrusco di Sorbara Sant'Agata is a lovely platinum pink color in the glass. It offers a bouquet of wildflowers, crushed apples and ground ginger. It rushes the palate with a creamy wave of tantalizing bubbles, giving way to sour citrus and tart pit fruits. Zesty acidity cleanses the sense as the 2022 finishes a bit short yet impactful." Vinous

Bright cherry pink with light reflections. Subtly sweet nose of raspberry, strawberry and traces of citrus and honey.

LARISERVA is a white vinified Lambrusco di Sorbara Spumante and is aged for 12 months in the Martinotti method (Charmat method) in pressure tanks on fine lees. Fine powder pink.

"Fresh strawberry, sweet herbs, roses and smoke create an inviting display as the 2019 Lambrusco di Sorbara Lariserva opens up in the glass. This displays silky textures and a stimulating bead of fine bubbles, accentuated by brilliant acidity and tart orchard fruits. It’s savory, almost salty and buzzing with residual tension through the long, mouthwatering finale." Vinous

The first alcoholic fermentation of the must takes place in steel vats on the fine lees at a controlled temperature and after a waiting period of at least six months, the wine is bottled. The bottles remain at a constant temperature of 12°C so that the wine can undergo its second fermentation and mature on its own yeasts, which remain as a light sediment (beware, it is not filtered!) at the bottom of the bottle.

Animating cherry red with violet reflections and a yeasty cloudiness that comes from the lack of filtration. Surprisingly, the cheeky nose of wild strawberry and redcurrant, very fresh and accessible. On the palate, vibrant with lots of raspberry and traces of rhubarb, the exciting play is flanked by delicate yeast tones and a wonderfully present acidity and ensures an impressive race and class that only Lambrusco grandmaster Christian Bellei can conjure up in the bottle! SUPERIORE.DE

GROSSO is a Blanc de Noirs produced in the classic Champagne method and matures for 24 months on the fine lees. Delicate pink colour and a fine, persistent perlage. Crisp bouquet of violets, citrus peel, nectarine and wild strawberry. On the palate with a nice draught, very straight after red berries. Very well balanced, it prances with fine spicy and impressive freshness into a respectable finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Brightest, shining copper with golden accents. In the bouquet red currant and wild cranberry, in addition delicate meadow herbs, slightly yeasty. In the taste again distinctly spicy, shows rich melting and winds wiry through the palate, animating in the drink, in the finish finesse-rich and slightly salty." Falstaff

This sparkling wine is named after the minimum 36 months of bottle fermentation it must undergo.

The result is impressive: bright ruby red with garnet reflections. On the nose, sour cherry, redcurrant and wild rose, rounded off by candied cherry and traces of light smoke. On the palate, powerful, complex, round and creamy in texture, the candied fruit is well-dosed, juicy, clear and with a full-bodied, long finish. Trentasei combines the tradition of the region with an already visionary new interpretation of a Sorbara Spumante, which remains in the memory even after the bottle has been emptied far too quickly. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark copper colour. Juicy fragrance, but delicate, as if of raspberries. A fine perlage runs through tart aromas of rosehip, sea buckthorn and sour cherry. The acidity is present, there is also a lightly sparkling minerality on the tongue. A luxury wine according to the Metodo Classico, aged for 36 months in the bottle." Vinum

Here comes one of the most serious and at the same time most exciting sparkling wines that can be made from the Sorbara variety!

Pale to old pink with fine foam and accentuated, persistent perlage. The bouquet is almost magical and yet very distinguished, with hints of raspberry and wild strawberry, which is what makes a top-class Lambrusco, but seems to be an unattainable goal for many of the local winegrowers. In the mouth, it has a fine acidity, delicately dry bitter notes and fruity tones of wild strawberry and pomegranate as an exciting brightening. The overall impression is bone-dry and the bottled dream of a Lambrusco made according to the champagne method, which is unparalleled in the wine landscape. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, luminous salmon pink. Intense nose of cherry and tangerine. Opens on the palate with fresh tangerine, gentle perlage and light pressure, shows great acidity, with draught, ends fruity-sweet." Falstaff

When a wine is named after the founder and mastermind of what is probably the most famous and hottest winery in the region around Modena, you should take a closer look, or better yet, reach directly for the bottle. This extraordinary sparkling wine is produced using the Blanc de Noirs method, i.e. a white spumante from red grapes - certainly not an everyday occurrence in the Lambrusco world.

And the result is just as special and high-class: golden colour with greenish reflections, lively and with a fine, infinitely long-lasting perlage. On the nose, delicate white peach, flint, salt, lemon and grapefruit. On the palate, then, crisply vibrant and endowed with an elegant acidity, the subtle fruit sweetness stretches out beautifully and its delicate mousseux gives this exceptional spumante its inimitable structure. The archetype of an aperitif and in its high-class, irresistible drinking flow simply unbeatable good and equal to the great name of the founder! SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright silver with delicate perlage. In the nose at first with a slight reduction, something like flint, ripe lemons, in addition cold smoke and candle wax. On the palate precise, almost cutting, with racy acidity and high draw, makes the tongue click." Falstaff

A Lambrusco with almost zero (!) grams of residual sweetness seems like an insurmountable contradiction. But far from it, the Lambrusco benchmark Cantina della Volta delivers a sparkling wine here that can keep up with the best rosé champagnes of the noble region of France.

Delicate pale pink with an impressively fine perlage in the glass. In addition to the classics raspberry and wild strawberry, the bouquet opens with wonderfully floral notes that make it seem downright lovely despite its lack of sugar. On the palate, then, of indescribable finesse, creaminess and "dry sweetness", which makes us refill without much hesitation and draws us fully into the glass. La Prima Volta is a spumante with just the right balance of class, drinkability and mineral freshness, just as we would like to enjoy a sparkling wine today and tomorrow. Never too heavy, but still with an irresistible depth and far from any arbitrariness. SUPERIORE.DE
