A twist on Alanna’s ‘German Lambrusco’ here with a style that takes us into sparkling rosé territory, with a blend of red and white grapes together.
The 2023 is the third iteration of this delightful natural fizz, and sees the addition of macerated Pinot Noir in the mix, adding lots of red fruit and an underripe, strawberry-like note. This then plays off against the minerality and aromatics of the gently macerated Riesling, Johannites, and Müller Thurgau. Made pét-nat style and pouring the most inviting hazy sunset-pink. Real sunshine juice.
As bright, lifted and refreshing as always! And clocking in at just 9.5%, we can’t imagine a bottle will last long.
Originally from Toronto, Alanna Lagamba found herself working in wine in Berlin when she met Martin Wörner, a winemaker in the Rheinhessen. To cut a long love story short, in 2019 Alanna made her first wine, Frauen Power, from a plot of Dornfelder that Martin didn't know what to do with. Chanelling her Italian heritage, her aim was to make an German Lambrusco, and the results were delicious. In Alanna's own words: 'A self-proclaimed feminist, the idea behind the name of the wine came easily. Being so lucky as to have so many strong and powerful women in my life who inspire me every day, this wine is dedicated not only to them but to all women out there (and all who identify as such).'
