NV Lini 910 Labrusca Rosso

Aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, and violet integrate with savory notes of balsamic and a hint of forest floor. The palate is medium-bodied and exceptionally vibrant, featuring a core of tart forest fruits and a creamy, persistent froth. It displays soft tannins and a refreshing acidity that leads to a clean, bone-dry finish marked by a distinct savory mineral grip and a touch of bitter cocoa.

Winemaker Fabio Lini utilizes a blend of Lambrusco Salamino and Lambrusco Ancellotta. In the cellar, the wine is produced using the Charmat Lungo method, where the secondary fermentation in pressurized tanks is extended for several months on the lees. This longer contact period creates a more sophisticated sparkle and integrated texture compared to standard Lambrusco, resulting in a drier, more culinary-focused style that prioritizes structure and aromatic complexity.

The fruit is grown in the Emilia-Romagna region of northern Italy, specifically within the province of Reggio Emilia. The site is defined by its flat, fertile plains and clay-dominant soils, which are ideal for producing deeply colored and flavorful Lambrusco varieties. The region's warm summers and humid continental climate allow the grapes to reach full phenolic ripeness while the cool evening temperatures help retain the essential acidity required for this traditional sparkling red.
