“BZZ” Lambrusco dell’Emilia Rosato Frizzante Passito

There are experimental wines, and there are experimental wines… Steiner enthusiast that he is, Gianluca also keeps bees at Terrevive, and “BZZ” is a pure-Sorbara passito for which the bunches are dried in beehives. According to Gianluca, the constant movement of the bees’ wings keeps air flowing around the grapes, thereby preventing mold and assisting in the drying process. Appassimento accentuates the already prominent wild herbal notes found in Gianluca’s wines, and the delivery of such notes on a dried-fruit frame creates a mouthwatering savory-sweet interplay.
