WINE MAKING PROCESS
The production of Quercioli Lambrusco di Sorbara Secco involves organic farming practices with highly restricted yields, often significantly lower than DOC mandates. The grapes undergo natural refermentation, either in bottle or autoclave, to create the wine's signature fizz. Following fermentation, the wine is typically aged for eight months. Medici Ermete & Figli, a family winery, focuses on enhancing the connection between the territory and the wine through these meticulous viticultural and vinification methods.
