WINE MAKING PROCESS
Il Campanone Reggiano Lambrusco undergoes a short cold maceration process to extract color and fruit characteristics. Following primary fermentation, a secondary fermentation is employed to create its characteristic frizzante (slight sparkle). This method is designed to preserve the wine's fresh, youthful, and fruity profile. The wine is typically bottled young to be enjoyed for its vibrancy. Specific details on aging, vineyard management, and sustainability practices for this particular bottling are not extensively documented.
