2021 Ventiventi Metodo Classico Brut Lambrusco Salamino di Santa Croce

The 2021 Ventiventi Metodo Classico Brut Lambrusco Salamino di Santa Croce is crafted by the family-run Ventiventi estate in Emilia-Romagna, a modern winery founded near Modena with a strong focus on sustainability and traditional bottle-fermented sparkling wines that highlight local grape varieties.

Produced using the Metodo Classico rather than the typical Charmat method, this Lambrusco offers refined bubbles and a more structured profile, showing aromas of blackcurrant, sour cherry, elderberry, and subtle spice alongside hints of black tea and licorice, with a lively, dry palate balanced by fresh acidity and a creamy mousse.

Its versatility at the table makes it an excellent match for cured meats, aged cheeses, pizza, and classic Emilia-Romagna dishes such as gnocco fritto or pasta with rich sauces, while its freshness also allows it to work well as an aperitivo.
