Lambrusco Amabile Bruscus S. Valentino Red 2016

Lambrusco Amabile Bruscus San Valentino Red is 100% Lambrusco from grapes grown in the province of Modena and Reggio Emilia.
Traditional vinification methods combined with modern technology to produce wines of guaranteed quality. After the grapes are pressed, they are transferred to fermentation tanks where the must is racked off in an average of 70 hours. The wine then completes its first rapid fermentation process and passes to the slower fermentation phase, during which time it is racked off several times to improve its clarity. The wine is placed in an autoclave at strictly controlled temperatures wherein it undergoes a second fermentation. This is known as the Charmat Method. The temperature is controlled for full development of the bouquet and for the lively and natural sparkle so characteristic of this wine.
Deep ruby red with violet reflections and a fine perlage.
Intense vinous bouquet with hints of ripe red fruits.
Lively, fresh, sweet and inviting with bright fruit and a delightful sparkle.
Excellent by itself or with desserts of dark chocolate, gorgonzola, cheesecakes.

The Vini San Valentino Bruscus Estate
The farm, located between Reggio Emilia and Parma, is an old family property that can trace back its viticultural origin to the 900's. Its philosphy is to combine the use of technology, constant innovation and tradition to obtain the best result and produce top quality wines. Today Lambrusco is enjoying a rebirth.
This is a small winery but is certainly big on quality, the kind of quality that only the natural fermentation of wines can guarantee.
