Cartabianca: the extra touch from Cantina Mingazzini

Cartabianca is a special edition by Cantina Mingazzini, featuring three sparkling expressions of our territory: Lambrusco Frizzante, Lambrusco Frizzante Amabile, and Pignoletto DOC.
These wines undergo a longer fermentation in autoclave, during which they remain in contact with the fine lees of the grapes for an extended period.
This process enhances the wines with more elegant aromas and more complex aromatic nuances — the unmistakable signature of the Cartabianca line.
