Introduction:
The NV Cantina di Sorbara Lambrusco di Sorbara Amabile "Emma" is a semi-sweet, lightly sparkling red wine that embodies the vibrant, fruit-forward, and refreshing nature of Lambrusco di Sorbara. With its lively bubbles, bright acidity, and gentle sweetness, this wine is a joyful expression of Emilia-Romagna’s winemaking heritage.
Terrior:
Sourced from the sandy, alluvial soils of Sorbara in Emilia-Romagna, the vineyards benefit from a moderate continental climate. The region’s fertile soils and proximity to the Po River contribute to the wine’s fresh acidity and delicate fruit character.
Appearance:
Brilliant ruby red with a fine, persistent froth of pink mousse.
Nose:
Highly aromatic with intense notes of wild strawberries, raspberries, red cherries, and hints of rose petals, with a touch of citrus zest adding brightness.
Palate:
Light-bodied yet vibrant, with a soft and creamy texture from the fine bubbles. The semi-sweet nature of the wine balances its lively acidity, enhancing the juicy red fruit flavors of cherry, pomegranate, and raspberry. A slight floral and citrus undertone adds complexity.
Finish:
Smooth and refreshing, with lingering notes of red berries and a hint of sweetness that fades into a crisp, clean finish.
Overall Impression:
A lively, fruit-driven, and slightly sweet Lambrusco that is both playful and elegant. The balance of acidity, bubbles, and sweetness makes it incredibly easy to drink, whether on its own or paired with charcuterie, salty cheeses, or light desserts.
