Alfredo Bertolaniโs Lambrusco Roseฬ is a delicious, light, and refreshing aperitif. It is cherry red in color and smells like strawberries and raspberries and violets with a touch of white pepper. On the palate it smacks of red berries, spices and flowers. This Lambrusco is delicate with a delicious combination of both fruit and acidity. Beralaniโs Lambrusco is classified as a Reggiano Lambrusco, which is a dry Roseฬ sparkling wine made with 50% Salamino and 50 % Marani Lambrusco grapes that are soft pressed with a short maceration of 7 days followed by temperature-controlled fermentation. Refermentation is performed using the Charmat wine making method which produces a light and refreshing sparkler at 11.5 % alcohol. The Bertolani winery was established in Scandiano, Emilia Romagna, Italy, in 1925 by Alfredo Bertolani. His success was a product of his passion for grapes and his knowledge of the terrain and territory. Family-owned by the fourth generation, they make delicious Lambrusco wines. Scandiano lies in the south, at the foothills of the Reggio Emilia province. Bertolaniยs grapes come from hillside vineyards and foothill areas where soil is fine with high levels of clay and lime. The vineyards in the hills are old vines that create wines with a interesting character and are more structured and delicious with intense fruity notes. Lambrusco is not just one grape variety or wine. It is a family of grapes and each has its own characteristics. The are many styles of Lambruscos that use the various Lambrusco grapes varieties in a number of blended combinations. That being said, Lambrusco is always a red sparkling wine, typically dry in style, fruity in flavor, sometimes savory, with good acidity, and tannic structure.
