Cleto Chiarli's Vecchia Modena Premium 2025: Back for Gold at the CSWWC

We are excited to announce that our Lambrusco di Sorbara DOC Rosso Frizzante "Vecchia Modena Premium" 2025 has once again earned prestigious recognition at the Champagne & Sparkling Wine World Championships (CSWWC). For us, it's a confirmation that this level of excellence is not a one-off, but the result of sustained mastery and consistency.

The Pioneering Spirit of Vecchia Modena

Long before Lambrusco achieved its modern renaissance, the Vecchia Modena project played a pioneering role, redefining what an authentic, estate-bottled Sorbara could achieve when made strictly with low-yield Sorbara grapes. This wine bears the DNA of our family's distinctive method and signature style: an uncompromising commitment to small-batch single vinification, crisp natural acidity, and absolute fidelity to the terroir.

About the Competition

Founded and judged by world-renowned sparkling wine authorities, including Tom Stevenson and Essi Avellan, the CSWWC is widely recognized as the largest, toughest, and most rigorous international sparkling wine competition in the world. Dedicated exclusively to sparkling wines, it relies on expert panels conducting rigorous blind tastings to champion provenance, elegance, and exceptional gastronomic versatility. Securing successive accolades here reinforces our Vecchia Modena's standing among the finest sparkling expressions on the global stage.
