‘Fuorleggero’

Lambrusco Grasparossa, Emilia-Romagna, Italy

A perky, pink northern Italian pet-nat to keep you pampered. Cinque Campi is a family estate passed down from father to son in the Nizzoli family for more than 200 years. Today they focus on local grapes, organic viticulture and zero-zero expressions of their unique and carefully cared for terroir. ‘Fuorleggero’ (aka ‘outlaw’) is made from the fragrant and vibrantly acidic Lambrusco Grasparossa, known for making the boldest lambrusco around! Direct pressed to make a rosé our pinky-promising outlaw spends six months in concrete, then, with an addition of unfermented juice from the same vintage, goes through a re-fermentation in the bottle, creating bustling bubbles. Boiled lollipop flute, creamy tangerine mixer percussions, thistle flowers on oboe, cello stroking minerality, raspberries on 1st violin, cherries conducting the orchestra & a wild fizz of standing applause. Try with smoked eggplant dishes, and dips in small ponds.
