"The Italian bubbles par excellence" is how Ferrari has been defined many times and it has also had the honour of being the toast at many of the most important official functions in our country. In line with this tradition, Cantine Ferrari has decided to celebrate the 150 year anniversary of the Unity of Italy by dedicating a special Riserva to this special occasion, realized in a limited edition of just 1861 numbered bottles.
Ferrari Riserva 150th is the name, an elegant metodo classico expression of the 1999 vintage which originates from a careful selection of Chardonnay grapes from the best vines owned by the Lunelli family, on the slopes of the mountains in Trentino.
This special Riserva, which is not for sale, can boast the official logo for the 150th anniversary celebrations: three fluttering Italian flags, representing the three jubilees in 1911, 1961 and 2011, an ideal link between the generations.
The Ferrari Riserva 150th is the contribution towards the celebrations of a company that has always believed deeply in the value of Italian-ness in its own products. One thousand of the 1861 bottles, donated by Cantine Ferrari to the Italian state, will be offered as a joyous symbol of Unity during the busy programme of official celebrations, starting with the events scheduled at the Quirinale Palace for Republic Day. The remaining bottles will be given to people who have distinguished themselves by their achievements in various fields for Italy or by promoting Made in Italy throughout the world.
