Antica Foresteria
Lambrusco di Sorbara D.O.C.
Sparkling – Extra Dry
Cantina Cavicchioli has its origins far back in time. It all started from a piece of land, a vineyard with a farmhouse from where a man looked into the distance. Antica Foresteria (“old guesthouse”) is a homage to this story. This range of sparkling wines from Umberto Cavicchioli e Figli bears the name of a place of memories and aims to lead the winery towards the future, writing another successful chapter, also thanks to the high quality and liveliness of Lambrusco di Sorbara DOC.
Vinification
The grapes are handpicked, gently pressed and then left to cool in small tanks at a low temperature for 2-3 days. After settling, the decanted must is transferred to a pressure steel tank at 15–18°C for slow fermentation, until all the sugar has been depleted. It is then aged on the lees for at least 120 days (long Charmat method) before bottling.
Tasting notes
COLOUR: light ruby red fading into pink, with light purplish hues.
BOUQUET: straightforward and light with reminders of wild strawberry, raspberry and cherry, typical of the Sorbara grapes, enhanced by the fine bubbles.
FLAVOUR: straightforward and lively with a delicate entry that evolves into a surprisingly balanced citrusy acidity on the finish.
Pairings
A versatile sparkling wine that plays a leading role from aperitifs to main courses. Excellent with structured and flavourful antipasti like “Tuscan crostini” or veal in tuna sauce, it pairs perfectly with grilled fish and seafood crudités.

Origin Vineyards north of Modena and between the rivers Secchia and Panaro.
