Umberto Cavi&Figli Robanera

Growing up near a river means growing up with the idea of “movement”. Water on the move, goods on the move, and people on the move. On the lower Modena plain, very close to the Secchia and Panaro rivers, wine known as Lambrusco is also on the move. Back in 1928, the Cavicchioli family began to make this wine “move”. This typical family from Modena, by nature and not only by name, promotes the modern value of this unique wine all on its own. It all began in San Prospero, in the province of Modena, in a rich and fertile land in the heart of the Po Valley plain. In the shadow of the symbols of Modena, the Duomo (cathedral), Saint Geminianus and the Ghirlandina bell tower, many beautiful and important things were created, including Lambrusco and Lambrusco Cavicchioli.The history of Cantine Cavicchioli has been moulded on the local geographical area. When everything is on the move around here, everything progresses while following traditions, those that have made the style of the Cavicchioli family unmistakable over time.The Cavicchioli vineyards extend for over 90 hectares, close to the wineries in the Sorbara and neighbouring area, as well as the DOC area between the Secchia and Panaro rivers. The wine cellar, where production and bottling take place, has always been located in San Prospero and has never moved, however, it has moved ahead in terms of its state-of-the-art technological tools. The company’s ongoing goal is always the same: to make high-quality Lambrusco while looking ahead and combining sophisticated techniques with ancient inherited traditions in order to make good wine. The family is very important. The Cavicchioli brothers, Claudio and Sandro, grandsons of the founder Umberto who led the company for many years, are creative businessmen and geniuses from Emilia-Romagna. They have produced a red Lambrusco that is on a par with the red Ferrari.
