Grape: Lambrusco SalaminoVintage: 2024Type: Sparkling This sparkling red wine is a traditional semi-dry frizzante crafted from one-hundred percent lambrusco salamino grapes in Emilia-Romagna. The Paltrinieri family manages the estate rows under sustainable viticulture guidelines, harvesting manually to select clusters with optimal structural balance. Following a classic primary red winemaking process, secondary fermentation occurs inside pressurized stainless steel tanks via the Charmat method. This clean approach focuses entirely on safeguarding the grape's primary fruit aromatics and bright, lively varietal character. It pours a deep purple-ruby color with an energetic, fine perlage that catches the eye. The nose is intensely fruity, opening with aromas of ripe cherry, raspberry, blackcurrant, and a hint of violet petals. On the palate, the light-bodied frame is pleasantly semi-dry, balancing a gentle sweetness with a crisp line of natural acidity. Supple, light tannins provide a soft structural grip that anchors the creamy texture cleanly without feeling heavy.
