More questions
Spumante Lambrusco Metodo Classico - Elettra - Az. Agricola Villa di Corlo represents an Emilian excellence that combines tradition and innovation. Produced in the renowned Modena area, this sparkling wine comes from the Lambrusco grape variety, worked with the classical method which involves a second fermentation in the bottle, thus ensuring a fine and persistent sparkle. The result is a wine with a bright ruby red color, with fruity hints of cherry and strawberry, enriched by delicate floral aromas and a pleasant touch of yeast due to aging on the lees. On the palate, it is distinguished by freshness and liveliness, with a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity, making it ideal to accompany typical cured meats, aged cheeses, and dishes of Emilian cuisine. Elettra presents itself as a refined expression of the territory, able to enhance Lambrusco in an elegant and modern guise.

Over time the estate has expanded its range, focusing on locally sourced Lambrusco and red wines and emphasising the direct production of its grapes.
