Intense ruby-red color, tending towards garnet. Distinctly vinous and particularly fragrant bouquet. Dry and sapid, this Lambrusco is full-bodied and slightly tannic.

The Villa di Corlo estate and winery is in the heart of Lambrusco country in Modena province, one of Italy's greatest culinary destinations, known for its iconic food products like traditional balsamic vinegar. Although this small winery also grows some international varieties, its primary focus is sparkling Lambrusco made from Grasparossa grapes that the estate grows itself (unusual for Emilia viticulture where many producers are n gociants that get their grapes a variety of growers). Sourced from vineyards that lie in the foothills at more than 300 meters a.s.l., Villa di Corlo's Lambrusco di Grasparosso DOC is classic in style, with balance and restrained sweetness, a perfect pairing for the traditional salumi and dishes of Modena but also a wonderful match for pizza, American standbys like hamburgers, and Asian cuisine. One of the things that sets Villa di Corlo apart from the crowd is that it has produced all its own energy since 2012 when it installed solar panels to reduce its carbon footprint. Like many wineries in Modena, Villa di Corlo also makes traditional balsamic vinegar which it ages in its own aging room. 25 hectares of vineyards, mostly cultivated with Grasparossa grapes, a thick-skinned, late ripening variety of Lambrusco. Soil clay and silty. Quality Lambrusco producer, modern wines with a lively sparkle, a rich flavor exalted by a good acidity. Proud owner of the Cru Corleto, a single vineyard located on a hill at around 320 meters above sea level. View More
