CANTINA DI CARPI - Lambrusco di Sorbara - Rosso secco
The winemaking co-operative of Carpi and Sorbara is located in Emilia-Romagna, in Italy. It was founded in 2012 by the merger of two historic companies on the Modena wine scene: the Carpi Winery and the Sorbara Winery. It counts 1,200 members, 2,330 grape growers and owns 6 factories; 5 dedicated to grape pressing and 1 dedicated to bottling activities. Cantina di Carpi is the commercial brand for the bottles on sale, produced and bottled in the plant of Carpi. The different vines called Lambrusco as we know them today have arisen from the domestication of Vitis Silvestris, which developed over the millennia, from prehistoric times, through natural selection.
This Lambrusco is made from Lambrusco Sorbara, the lightest of the four varieties of Lambrusco DOP in the province of Modena. Secco means the wine contains between 17 and 32 g/L of residual sugar. It’s a ruby red-coloured frizzante.
Grape variety: minimum 60% Lambrusco Sorbara
