SPARKLING RED Cleto Chiarli Vigneto Cialdini Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro 2017

The lambrusco grape (actually a collection of varieties, but let’s not get too deep in the weeds) is thought to be one of Italy’s most ancient, domesticated from wild vines growing at the edges of the forest. This raspberry- and cinnamon-sprinkled pleasure will leave you wanting to pipe and frolic like a faun with its comparatively refined mouthful of red bubbles.
