Paltrinieri Lambrusco di Sorbara Piria 2025

When Alberto Paltrinieri finished his degree, his father asked him what he wanted to do in life. “My answer was that I wanted to continue the legacy of the work started by my grandfather Achille in 1926, a work that he and my mother had been doing for 40 years.” So, in 1998, he and his wife Barbara took over Paltrinieri, the family winery in northeastern Italy, in the province of Modena, in the Cristo di Sorbara area. They produce high quality Lambruscos, like Paltrinieri Lambrusco di Sorbara Piria, made from the Lambrusco di Sorbara and Lambrusco Salamino native varieties. In this area, in Emilia-Romagna, within the DOC Lambrusco di Sorbara, the couple and their team manage 17 hectares of vineyards between the Secchia and Panaro rivers. The soil, mostly loamy and sandy, is fresh, rich in potassium and with organic substances. The vines, with a yield of 140 kilos per hectare, grow under a continental climate, with very cold winters, very hot summers and rainfall in spring. Paltrini
