This dry sparkler is a breezy blast of flowers, citrus, and fresh herbs. It’s just the ticket to cleanse the palate and quench your thirst when a heaping pile of locally produced cheeses and salty cured meats appears before you. Emilia (the western part of the Emilia-Romagna region) specializes in fizzy wines. Whether it’s a white, red, or a shade in between, these wines are made from a number of intriguing indigenous grape varieties and all tend to be bubbly. As it turns out, crisp, quaffable frizzante are the perfect match for the notoriously rich local culinary specialties.

Delicious With

Pair with thin slices of cured prosciutto, pastas coated in slow-cooked meaty ragù, and cheeses ranging from creamy to intensely savory. Or just in the glass as an aperitivo!

Their Cred

Domenico Altariva grew up watching his parents work the land; so when he married and bought a house with his wife, Albertina, he also bought a little land that he would tend in his spare time. Right from the start they worked their vines with entirely natural products and made the most of their vineyard sites. When their sons Fabio and Fausto joined the estate in 1991, the family took another step forward, building a new winery, acquiring more vineyards, and finally bottling the wine themselves; and in 1997 becoming organic. The family chooses to highlight the local grape Lambrusco, resulting in an intense, terroir-driven Lambrusco with a nose serious enough for even the most knowledgeable wine connoisseur.
