Lightly sparkling and refreshing. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThis wine is made from 100% Barbera grapes from the Windmill Vineyard. The vines were planted to match the sunny climate and gravelly clay soils of site.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSergio Villanueva farms the Certified Organic Windmill vineyard for the owner Jeff Morgan under our direction and tutelage. He knows practically every vine by name, and carefully nurtures the vineyard with tremendous pride. The Windmill Vineyard is situated up on the pinkish gravelly alluvial soils of the Dunnigan Hills AVA in Yolo County. It is a hot climate, and the fruit ripens fast, allowing us to harvest ripe fruit at low sugar levels, keeping the alcohol moderate and the flavors vivid and intense without any heaviness in the wines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter barrel aging for mellowness and completeness, we bottled “méthode champenoise” to referment in the bottle for natural carbonation (there will be slight cloudiness from the natural yeast). This is a traditional way to make Lambrusco that is rarely done any more. There was no fining or filtering, and only native yeasts were used in the primary fermentation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GiGi's","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67597599768712,"sku":null,"price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/2095\/5528\/files\/IMAGECOMINGSOON_1_28239c8d-b1cd-45da-aaa9-fbcfb01a8483.png?v=1761950666","url":"https:\/\/gigisbottleshop.com\/products\/matthiasson-windmill-vineyard-sparkling-barbera-dunnigan-hills-yolo-county-california-2024","provider":"GiGi's","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
