Cleto Chiarli Vecchia Modena Lambrusco Di Sorbara Brut Frizzante NV

The Vecchia Modena Premium Lambrusco di Sorbara represents the history both of the Chiarli wine Company and of Lambrusco wine itself. The bottle and label are reproductions of an 1892 bottle—the oldest existing bottle containing Lambrusco—that is still treasured in the Chiarli archives today. Chiarli Vecchia Modena won the first international recognition by a Lambrusco wine at the World Expo in Paris in 1900. Reintroduced in 2002 at a brand-new Cleto Chiarli winery, the wine is made through a single fermentation under pressure, rather than the normal two-fermentation process of almost all other sparkling wines. This is in the brut range, with minimal detectable sweetness.

A top wine of 2021 selected by our wine department. Forget everything you know about Lambrusco. It’s actually not always sweet! This one is bone dry and incredibly fresh, with wonderful flavors of tart bing cherry and cranberry. This one is made by a natural producer right outside the village of Modena in Emilia Romagna. Enjoy this chilled with charcuterie; there’s almost no better pairing.
