Hello Steemit Friends,
I do not have a lot of experience with Italian wines so I had no idea what to expect from Vecchia Modena – Cleto Chiarli E Figli. I could tell by the cork that it was some kind of sparkling wine. The description card said “Bright, light red color, an extraordinarily vibrant and neat taste with elegant aromas of raspberries and roses”. It sounded worth a try.
I was not disappointed. It had a really pretty light red color and the fragrance was mild fruit. The flavor was light and refreshing, not too bubbly and slightly tart. It reminded me of a cranberry spritzer. It tasted good by itself and also yummy with food. I checked out the company website - https://www.chiarli.it/showPage.php?template=cantine&id=3 and saw that the brand was Cleto Chiarli and the wine was made from 100% Lambrusco di Sorbara grapes.
I will admit that I had a problem opening the bottle. I had never seen the cork latched to the bottle in that manner. I tried a butter knife and couldn’t get enough leverage. Needle nose pliers turned out to be the answer. Do any of you have experience with this type of latching? If so, what is the trick?
This wine was really nice and I would feel very comfortable giving it as a house-warming gift. The price where I purchased it was $16.80 US. I will definitely buy this selection again.
Do you have a favorite Italian wine? Let me know.
Hmm. An Italian sparkling red wine. I can dig it. May have to try it, this summer instead of Gris.

That looks so refreshing. I'm with you. I think I would've used pliers too.

Looks refreshing for sure. I can see the cranberry spritzer reference. Clearly.

Hello good day @altportal how are you ?. Today we show another wonderful wine of your taste, I like it a lot because as I do not have much experience in terms of wines, with your post I learn more about them, I see varieties of colors, flavors and brands. The one of today has a very beautiful bright red color as well as you comment and it calls the attention to me that you say that its fragrance is to fruit, then it is exquisite, but it is made of grape and I imagine giving a sorvo of this wonderful wine accompanied by a good food. Well with regard to taking the cork out of the bottle I do not have much experience, but I have heard that many people take them out with knives and pliers as you did, but also some do it with a hammer and a screw, others with only one rag covering the cork and even some with a shoe. Finally there are many ways to get these corks out of the wine bottles, in your case it costs you work because I see that the cork is great, but luckily you could take out the cork and enjoy this majestic wine. With respect to favorite Italian wines I do not have because I have not tried any, but I have heard and seen on the internet that wine (Barbaresco, vintage 2007 - Punset) is very good, but if Italy is one of the main wine producing countries, I think that everyone must be good. Happy Sunday, may you be well.

Hello friend how are you, how is your weekend, another wine review that I love because as I am not an expert I have learned and even caused me to experiment and try wine with meals but in Venezuela as you should know everything is very very expensive So I just have to read your good experience and congratulate you for taking the risk to try different flavors and show me your experience
The wine looks very good because of its color and as you describe it I have heard that Italian wines are excellent
about how to open it I do not know anything about it once in the new year I had to open a bottle and the cork went to the bottom jajajajaajajajaja

I'm not an expert drinking wines, but only with that red color so striking and one gives the idea that it is a very tasty wine. I have tried many Portuguese wines (my family is from there) but Italians never, besides I never saw a cork so hard to remove it made you work hard!
Greetings.
