91 points Decanter: "The oldest producer in Emilia, Cleto Chiarli is better known for producing high-quality Lambrusco Secco, but this Grasparossa Amabile is just as captivating. Round and creamy but not cloying, touches of pepper and cinnamon complicate cherry jam flavours. Excellent acidity keeps the residual sugar in balance, underpinning a savoury and slightly grippy finish. Drinking window 2024-2027 (Jan 2024)"
90 points & 'Best Buy' Wine Enthusiast: "This Lambrusco opens with forward plummy and black-cherry aromas, which take on a more macerated and jam-like quality as the wine develops in the glass. A touch of wild flowers and fresh herbs provide an added dimension to the bouquet, while the palate is delightfully sweet. Despite the sweetness, the wine maintains a good balance, making it a well-crafted example of the style—one that is lifted on the finish with a zippy pop of acidity (Oct 2024)"
90 points Falstaff Guide: "Medium ruby red colour with a gentle brightening on the rim and a light mousse. On the nose intense aromas of blackberries, wild berries, sour cherry and herbal aromas. On the palate juicy and with good flow, fine tannic structure and fruity on the finish. (Oct 2023)"
