After last year’s success of Rosé del Cristo, which earned the prestigious Tre Bicchieri award from Gambero Rosso, this year the spotlight is on Vigna del Cristo, a true symbol of excellence for Cavicchioli winery. This exceptional Lambrusco di Sorbara DOC has once again secured one of Italy’s most prestigious wine accolades, further cementing its reputation among the country’s finest wines. This achievement marks its eleventh Tre Bicchieri award!
A Wine that speaks of its terroir Vigna del Cristo embodies the heritage of Lambrusco di Sorbara, showcasing its signature vibrant freshness and refined elegance. Sourced exclusively from a five-hectare vineyard in the locality of Cristo, nestled between the Secchia and Panaro rivers, this wine reflects the deep-rooted connection with the land that Cavicchioli has always championed. The unique terroir and microclimate of this area contribute to making Vigna del Cristo truly exceptional.
A Unique sensory experienceFor those familiar with this remarkable wine, its Tre Bicchieri recognition comes as no surprise. A delicate, blush-pink mousse introduces a glass filled with intense floral notes of violet, complemented by fruity hints of raspberry and strawberry. On the palate, it is full-bodied and enveloping, striking a perfect balance between freshness and acidity. This dry Lambrusco offers a compelling sensory journey. It pairs exquisitely with refined dishes such as oysters and seafood crudité, while also enhancing more traditional flavours like premium cured meats and Parmigiano Reggiano.
A year of achievements for Cavicchioli Winery This award marks another milestone in Cavicchioli’s ongoing success, as the winery continues to stand out for the exceptional quality of its wines and its ability to innovate while honouring tradition. Following the widespread acclaim of Rosé del Cristo last year, the return of Vigna del Cristo to the top highlights the dedication and expertise of the Cavicchioli team in elevating Lambrusco di Sorbara to a place of true prestige in the world of Italian wines.
