This aperitif (a great success at the Fattoria during the grape harvest) is prepared with grape juice, if possible homemade (1), mixed with various kinds of “bubbly”: 2/3 sparkling wine, 1/3 grape juice – both well chilled – served in flute glasses decorated with a grape, or a small bunch of grapes.

(1) You can prepare it at home, by putting ripe, red, organic grapes through a hand-turned food mill (…real freshly “squeezed” grape juice).
