Cleto Chiarli World Champion at CSWWC 2022
Lambrusco di Sorbara doc Vecchia Modena Premium 2021 Magnum was judged the World’s Best Red Sparkling Wine at The 2022 Champagne & Sparkling Wine World Championships (CSWWC).
This is one of our most prized wines that garners the consensus of International & Italian wine critics.
Tenuta Cialdini CRU (single vineyard)
Owned by the family for over 130 years, the Tenuta Cialdini is located in the heart of the Lambrusco Grasparossa wine-growing area.
Its over 50 hectares of vineyards extend to the foot of the first hills, where the soils were formed by the ancient alluvial deposits.
The gently rolling terrain in this area owes its contours to the cyclical succession of erosive and depositional processes and the top soil (up to 50/60 cm) has a silty texture with the presence of gravels.
Inside the estate is the famous Cialdini vineyard, from which the Grasparossa “Vigneto Cialdini” originates, a Lambrusco ‘cru’ with unparalleled, unmistakable characteristics.

The amazing sparkling red wine pairing LUNCH:
We’re in a land called “The Food Valley”.
A land offering countless gastronomic specialities such as world famous sliced meats, Parmigiano (parmesan) cheese, Balsamic Vinegar, and Tortellini, alongside famed sports cars built by Ferrari and Maserati, exceptional people such as Enzo Ferrari, Luciano Pavarotti and chef Massimo Bottura.
We will taste the entire line of the only sparkling red wine that has ever been in the TOP 100 of Wine Spectator, and then you can try the perfect combination with the specialties of the local cuisine in a wine pairing menu created exclusively for WFTI guests.
The magnificent red sparkling Lambrusco “Fondatore” is the result of an absolutely rare traditional vinification with ‘Pris de Mousse’ through natural in-bottle fermentation which is followed by a six-month long ageing.
