ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Lambrusco "Otello 200" Ceci is one of the many centuries-old stones that this historic canti-na of Torrile, a few kilometers from Parma, presents in its immense wine mosaic. Lam-brusco wines can be considered worthy representatives of a land and its people: Emilia. Frizzante wines, fresh and good company just like Otello Ceci, who in 1938 began his winemaking adventure by serving Lambrusco of his own production to customers at the family tavern.
Ceci Lambrusco "Otello 200" is made entirely from the Maestri variety, whose no-me apparently originates from the villa of the same name near the town of San Pancrazio in the pro-vince of Parma. This type of Lambrusco has seen a significant increase in the number of hectares planted with vines in recent decades-replacing more and more the "Marani" with less body and impact-going as far as Australia and Argentina to cross national borders. Once the grapes are harvested, processing in the winery proceeds following the traditional Lambrusco methodology, that is, starting the second fermentation inside an autoclave, the so-called Charmat Method.
"Otello 200" Lambrusco delle Cantine Ceci is immediately recognizable as soon as it is poured into the glass thanks to its purple elegance that ends in a creamy and finis-sima froth. The finesse of geranium binds with the freshness and sweetness of berries, such as raspberries and blackberries, building an aromatic framework that entices tasting. Once in the palate, "Otello 200" opens expressing all its warmth with a light, sweetish sip immediately delicately muted by a decisive freshness, a gentile bolla and a pleasant savoriness. Lambrusco of great company, this interpretation of Cantine Ceci is a wine suitable for any time of day: from lunch to dinner, passing through the aperitif in short it is a must-have to enjoy without too many frills.
