Cleto Chiarli Centenario Lambrusco Amabile 750ml 8% (Italy)
Cleto Chiarli Centenario Lambrusco Amabile is a red Italian Frizzante wine from the Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro DOC appellation in Emilia-Romagna. It is bottled at 750ml with 8% ABV and made from Lambrusco Grasparossa. “Amabile” describes its semi-sweet profile: the wine keeps a refreshing lift while offering generous fruit and a softer, sweeter impression than a dry Lambrusco.
Cleto Chiarli Centenario Lambrusco Amabile is lightly sparkling, or Frizzante, and is matured in stainless-steel pressurised tanks (autoclave) for three months. Its deep red colour and gentle effervescence make it an unmistakable example of the Grasparossa style from Castelvetro. The DOC designation confirms the protected origin associated with this historic Lambrusco-growing area.
The bouquet is fruity, with sweet plum, dried violet and exotic-spice notes. On the palate, blackberry, fig and cherry-jam character meet a sweet-and-savoury spice note and fresh acidity. This balance gives Cleto Chiarli Centenario Lambrusco Amabile a rounded, approachable taste while preserving brightness. Serve it chilled to let the fruit and light sparkle show clearly.
It is a natural match for traditional Emilian cuisine and also works as a dessert wine. Try it with cured meats, pizza, rich pasta dishes or fruit-based desserts. The bottle contains sulphites. Centenario takes its name from the Chiarli family’s centenary and reflects the house’s long Lambrusco tradition; Cleto Chiarli was founded in 1860. 🍷
