Cleto Chiarli Awarded the "Crown" in the 2027 Vinibuoni d'Italia Guide

Cleto Chiarli is pleased to share that two of its wines have been awarded the "Crown" (Corona) by the Vinibuoni d'Italia guide for its upcoming 2027 edition. Published by the Italian Touring Club, Vinibuoni d'Italia is a highly respected national publication that evaluates over 30,000 wine samples annually through rigorous blind tastings.

The recognized wines are the Lambrusco di Sorbara DOC "Lambrusco del Fondatore" 2025 and the Lambrusco di Sorbara DOC "Vecchia Modena Premium" 2025.

The Crown is the guide's highest regional recognition, awarded by local coordinators to the finest expressions of Italian wine. By securing this distinction, both wines will now advance to the National Finals to compete for a place in the guide's "Top 300".

The final evaluations will take place on September 3rd and 4th in Istria, Croatia. During this stage, the finalist wines will be assessed in strictly blind tastings by the guide's national curators, Mario Busso, Alessandro Brizi, and Alessandro Scorsone. A parallel international jury, composed of industry professionals and journalists, will also evaluate the wines to award a dedicated prize for the new edition.

If you haven't tasted the 2025 vintages, taste them fresh this summer and let us know if you agree with the jury!
