WINE MAKING PROCESS
Medici Ermete Concerto Lambrusco Reggiano is produced from a blend of Lambrusco grape varieties cultivated on the producer's organically managed vineyards in Emilia-Romagna. The winery's philosophy is to vinify Lambrusco varieties in purity, aiming to highlight the distinct characteristics of each grape. The sparkling nature of the wine is achieved through secondary fermentation, likely utilizing the Charmat method, which helps to preserve the fresh fruit aromas and lively effervescence. Specific details regarding fermentation vessels, temperatures, yeast strains, and aging for the 2021 vintage are not publicly detailed, but the overall approach emphasizes quality and the expression of the grape and territory.
