Ferrari Brut “Best Italian Sparkling Wine”, Asti Acquesi by Cuvage best aromatic wine in the world

Important awards are still coming from the special prizes of “The Champagne & Sparkling Wine World Championships 2020”, considered the “world championship of sparkling wines”, created by Tom Stevenson, considered the most authoritative competition on the subject, and that, as already reported by WineNews, saw Italy overtake France, with Trentodoc superstar (20 gold medals out of 47 Italian wines), and Ferrari brand at the top, with 9. And now, for the Lunelli family winery, among the top brands of Italian wine, comes also the recognition as “Best Italian Sparkling Wine” ever, thanks to Ferrari Brut (in magnum version, which is also, consequently, the “Best Trentodoc” 2020).
“We are particularly proud of this result - commented Matteo Lunelli, president of Cantine Ferrari - because we have always thought that the quality of our work should be judged by evaluating our whole range of labels and, above all, the qualitative constancy over time, expressed by non-magnum wines”.
But there are many category awards: Cuvage NV Acquesi Asti (from Mondodelvino group) is the “Best Asti 2020”, as well as “World Champion Aromatic Sparkling Wine 2020”, a title which confirms Asti Docg as an icon wine of sweet and aromatic bubbles, while the “Best Franciacorta 2020” is Fratelli Berlucchi 2014 Freccianera Satèn (in magnum version). The “Best Prosecco 2020” is Follador 2019 Extra Dry Valdobbiadene Docg Prosecco Superiore, while the “Best Lambrusco 2020”, and “World Champion Sparkling Red Wine” is Cantina Zucchi 2019 Etichetta Bianca, and the “Best Sicilian Sparkling Wine 2020” is Azienda Agricola G. Milazzo 2011 Federico II, in magnum version. But many are the Italian brands awarded also with the 2Best in Class”: from Ferrari itself to Follador, from Cà del Bosco to Maso Martis, from Nino Franco to Rotari (Mezzacorona), from Bottega to Bellussi, and not only.
