Food and wine matching
“to you” is the perfect accompaniment to Parmigiano
Reggiano, Prosciutto di Parma and the other typical salami of Parma area but its balance and complexity is also an ideal combination for most prestigious tasty and aromatic Italian dishes.
Wine making
A soft pressing of Lambrusco Maestri grapes produces must with lambrusco skins rich in colour. The following maceration transfer colour, taste and aroma to the juice which becomes wine after a temperature-controlled fermentation phase. Next
comes a period of settling, until December/January to allow a natural cleaning from all impurities. The wine is then stored in temperature-controlled, constant-pressure steel tanks for up to two months. During this period the second fermentation gives to “to you” its typical sparkling characteristic.
