Bastiglia

While its namesake in Paris was a fourteenth-century fortress built by Charles V to guard city gates, the Modenese municipality of Bastiglia channels its strength into preserving liquid heritage. This fertile territory is home to 1 verified producer crafting exceptional wines under the prestigious Lambrusco di Sorbara DOC, a highly localized denomination spanning just 12 municipalities. Nourished by the Secchia river basin, Bastiglia's unique environment supports 19 protected denominations in total. Here, history is not demolished for building materials, but bottled in the form of vibrant, acidic sparkling wines that reflect this specific terroir.
