Unique Metodo Classico Rosé 2022
Trade Tools
Italy
Unique is an elegant metodo classico sparkling rosé crafted from 100% Lambrusco Marani. Though classified as Reggiano Lambrusco DOC, it stylistically recalls Franciacorta or Champagne. The grapes, naturally high in acidity, are gently pressed off the skins to preserve a delicate pink hue and refined notes of red berries and florals. Aged 30 months on the lees, it develops complexity and fine texture, then is finished Brut with a minimal dosage of 4 g/l.
Harvest Note
The 2022 vintage was challenging, with hailstorms across Emilia Romagna in spring and early summer. Fortunately, the La Rampata vineyards avoided damage. A hot summer required targeted drip irrigation using recycled water to support vine balance. Cooler fall conditions with rain allowed for even ripening, resulting in beautifully mature fruit.
Tasting Note
Unique Metodo Classico Rosé has delicate soft red fruit and floral notes and fine, persistent bubbles that finish dry, with plenty of fresh acidity.
