Lungoparma Il Classico Rosè Brut

Lungoparma Il Classico Rosè Brut is a refined Italian sparkling wine from Emilia-Romagna, crafted in the traditional Metodo Classico style. Blending Pinot Nero and Chardonnay, it offers a delicate, dry rosé with fine bubbles and a distinctly elegant character. The wine is the result of careful research and meticulous grape maturation, bringing together precision, freshness and regional personality in the glass.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, Il Classico Rosè Brut shows a soft, shimmering salmon-pink hue with persistent, fine perlage. The nose is inviting and refined, with notes of wild strawberries, redcurrants and raspberry, layered with hints of citrus zest, white flowers and a subtle touch of brioche from time on the lees. On the palate, it is dry and lively, with a crisp acidity that lifts the red berry fruit, pink grapefruit and delicate stone fruit notes. The texture is creamy yet vibrant, with well-integrated bubbles and a clean, mineral-driven finish that leaves a gentle hint of pastry and citrus peel. Best enjoyed within a few years of release for its freshness and energy, it can also rest briefly in bottle to allow the brioche and savory nuances to gain a little extra depth.

Production
Sourced from carefully selected vineyards in Emilia-Romagna, the grapes benefit from a balanced climate that preserves acidity while allowing full aromatic ripening. Pinot Nero provides structure, color and red-fruit character, while Chardonnay contributes finesse, floral notes and tension. The fruit is harvested at optimal ripeness, often in the cooler hours of the day, to protect aromatics and freshness. After a gentle pressing and primary fermentation, the base wines are blended and undergo a second fermentation in bottle according to the Metodo Classico tradition. Extended contact with the lees adds complexity, fine mousse and a subtle, toasty backbone before disgorgement and a measured dosage to achieve the Brut style.

Food & Serving
Lungoparma Il Classico Rosè Brut is a versatile food partner, ideal as an aperitif but equally at home throughout a meal. Pair it with charcuterie, salmon tartare, tuna carpaccio, sushi, or prawn and shellfish dishes, as well as light poultry, grilled vegetables and fresh goat’s cheese or mild soft cheeses. Serve well chilled, around 6–8°C, to highlight its finesse and freshness. A brief 5–10 minutes in the glass is enough for it to open up; decanting is not necessary, but avoiding over-chilling will allow the fruit and floral notes to fully express themselves.
