2021 Marilina Fedeile Bianco Frizzante Sicilia IGT This little pet nat is made with the Moscato di Noto variety, giving it not over the top, but noticeable floral aromas. It spontaneously fermented with native/wild yeasts in concrete tanks and receives very minimal sulfur. Noto is known for not just the spectacular Baroque town and proximity to the sea, but also for its white limestone soils. The Paterno' family's vines grow on limestone and clay, the limestone giving the wines amazing acidity and freshness, despite the southeastern Sicilian heat.
NV Porta del Vento 'Voria' Sicilia IGT Made with the obscure Perricone grape from the hills of Palermo, 100% Certified Organic grapes and Biodynamic methods, in the ancestral method, fermented in concrete, re-fermention in bottle with the addition of grape must, not filtered and not disgorged. This rustic and hazy magenta bubbly offers tight and mineral-flecked pomegranate, raspberry lime zest, scrubby herbs, and dried purple flowers.
2023 Cantine Astroni Gragnano Penisola Sorrentina Throw everyone for a loop and bring this fizzy red from the coast of Naples. People will ask, "is this Lambrusco?" This flinty, wild red berried red is made from the Piedirosso grape, known in the volcanic zones of Campania. It's not quite as bubbly as Lambrusco, and it's a touch lighter than the typical inky juice. It's a touch off dry, but don't be shy! This is exactly the kind of bubbs you need for all that cheese and bacony bits.
+add on NV Cantina della Volta Brutrosso Lambrusco (Sorbara)
The Bellei family only works with the Lambrusco di Sorbara variety. The most common dark, inky Lambrusco comes from the Lambrusco Salamino variety. Sorbara is more difficult to grow, especially as it does not self pollinate! and needs the Salamino variety nearby to help it to actually produce. The vineyards lie at 650m asl, which is rather unheard of in Emilia-Romagna. Surely, there are hills, but much of the cheaper Lambrusco we’re accustomed to comes from the lower lying areas. This rose' is dark pink and fleshy, bitter finish-all the parts of Lambrusco we love, but is dry with mouth watering acidity. It's incredibly universal.
