The Spumante Lambrusco Reggiano Rubino del Cerro by Venturini Baldini is a blend of Lambrusco of the Montericco, Salamino and Grasparossa varieties. We are on the historic Matildic Hills, in the locality of Roncolo, between Parma and Reggio Emilia; the vineyards, managed organically, are at an altitude of about 250 metres above sea level and rest on clayey-sandy soils. The grapes are vinified in red with fermentation at a controlled temperature, then the second fermentation takes place in a vat according to the long Charmat method. This method is a cross between the classic method and the short Charmat method: the duration of the stay of the wine with the yeasts is 9-15 months, moreover, inside the vat some propeller stirrers are installed which have the task to keep the fermentation sediments in suspension. These characteristics allow to obtain a product defined by a more complex sensorial profile and a finer perlage.

The taste is pleasantly savoury, fresh and with very soft tannins. Excellent with traditional Quadrettini with giblets, squares of egg pasta cooked in meat broth and enriched with a small sauce of poultry entrails.
