Villa Di Corlo Primevo Lambrusco di Sorbara 2014

Modena, Emilia-Romagna, ItalySalmon pink, this effortless, light and charming fizzy is a blend of 80 percent Lambrusco Sorbara and 20 percent Lambrusco Salamino, from one of the top producers in the region. Two-to-three days of skin maceration (short, by regional standards) aids in the easy freshness of this wine. Balsamic ringed fresh raspberries, cherry, hints of wild cassis all dance on a tingly tight palate that is bone dry, savoury-stained, and streaked with wild herbal scrub. Balsamic lingers on the finish. At 11 percent, this is highly smashable. Lambrusco di Sorbara is the lightest in color of the five DOC lambruscos, with a characteristically delicate floral lift and lithe body, certainly evidenced here.Tasted: 01 May 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
