It originates from an ancient event, whose roots looses in a remote time and which gave rise to various myths, stories and transfigurations, revolving mostly around Dionysus’ emblematic figure. Through the events qualifying wine, a complex story of civilization can be read. There is a phase of mankind’s history, especially in the Middle East, which has strengthened across the centuries and has discovered an extraordinary product. The procedure of its achievement was far from being simple and its exciting power must have upset the customs of a primitive society (if one can define it so, considering the existence of more remote societies). This primitive but closer society is the testimony of human agricultural intervention on nature, i.e. of a Neolithic phase. It occurred after a hunting period and its economy was mostly characterized by cattle breading and earth products processing. Among these products, an intoxicating liqueur, precisely featuring the Mediterranean civilization, emerges. Hence, the Greeks’ idea (then transfigured in their imaginative fairy tale poems) of a God coming from abroad and completely changing the customs of Greek cities. A God, whose origin was variously set in the North and in the South. According to one legend, He was a blonde, curlyhaired God coming from the Thrace, whereas according to another one he was a divinity from Crete, the oldest country in the Greek tradition. Probably both legends are truthful because we still have white and black grapes. Nonetheless, what is typical in these stories (afterwards extraordinarily interpreted by Nietzsche) is the intuition of a goddess perceived as upsetting and coming from elsewhere, even if representing a human activity. Apparently, this God did not come from elsewhere; on the contrary, most recent paleographic, paleologic and philological surveys tend to collocate him in a Greek (if not already pre-Hellenic) antiquity. He was probably perceived as the God of a transfiguration, of a transformation with the power of, so to say, interrupting the normal rules of everyday life. Therefore, one could image this God to be the reviviscence, the echo – in more evolved and complex times- of the ancient primitive orgy, of the original sacred moment. On this occasion, the community did recognize itself in a sort of abandonment of social distinctions (limiting pulses and instincts) to end up again in an excited animal unit, so to say. Here one gives vent to primordial instincts, perceived as sacredness of renovated life and as consanguinity of the group. It is clear that the original group did sometimes need to strengthen its unity in order not to straggle. We are all scattered nowadays: According to anthropologists, who have deeply examined these events, young people do find some kind of unity in rock concerts. However, Nietzsche’s intuition of Dionysus as the echo of a primordial holy world, which at least for one day calls everything into question again – think about the Carnival as last ramification of his idea-; his idea of a break in the cyclical coming back of life in nature, in growing, in a society and the idea of necessary feasts of inebriated joy of life are to be confronted with Granet’s discovery that the same things happened in ancient China. The farmers in ancient China celebrated Spring and Autumn feasts too, which were controlled orgies through which young people 05 LAMBRUSCO A SPARKLING PHILOSOPHY of displaced villages met for the first time and practically got engaged and married. And they were also supported, if not by wine, by other exciting drinks. Hence, the great Nietzsche’s intuition of the human societies’ necessity of two forces in dialectical balance. On the one hand, the Apollonian order, the form, the decency, the decorum, the rule and the rules compliance, the so called sobriety; on the other hand, the inebriation. These two forces have to balance each other because society feeds itself on both of them; actually, they are in opposition, one is the different face of the other. Nietzsche’s intuition is very beautiful: in fact, Apollo and Dionysus are the same personality seen from two different perspectives. Hence the idea of the Greek ancient society as essentially more civilized than Plato’s society and Socrates’ moralistic society, which condemned the sexual instincts and mortified life in the name of authority. Wagner as well had this intuition: instead of intensifying life, authority ends up with mortifying it. He did know these things very well and was enthusiastic about Nietzsche telling him those stories. Therefore, in his famous Wort-Ton-Drama 06 The Nibelung’s ring an alternative is set: the person who takes hold of the gold -the dwarves or, later, the giants- must renounce love. We are in front of a decadent society ending in the Walhalla, in the reason’s fire: intellect clears away, so to say. Nietzsche is undoubtedly co-worker in this vision drawn on the Greeks, but nowadays we are able to go beyond it thanks also to Giorgio Colli’s analysis. Philosophically speaking, Nietzsche had his reasons to criticize the western society as mortifying already in the Greek and Roman moralism and even more in the Christian synthesis. Obviously, we are talking about a Christianity which rendered itself social, while Christianity itself is dionysiac: in Christ’s figure, the God who is eaten during the Eucharist, we find the exact story of Dionysus again, i.e. the God killed, eaten by the Titans and then resurrected from Apollo. But Colli tells us that Nietzsche was wrong when considering the dionysiac feast simply as a sexual and sensual wildness: it was a feast where excitement, in the heat of its passion, was hold by God so that it could be transformed into knowledge. This is very beautiful and one can deduce it from the tradition itself, if we read it more carefully. In this way, wine is no more opposite to sobriety and knowledge - so that we lose our heads and do not understand anything anymore-; on the other hand, the pinned wine, which is controlled from intellect and form, from Apollo, from a cooperation between Apollo and Dionysus, becomes that ardour, that passion and outburst enabling knowledge, real knowledge. So real knowledge lies at the bottom of the wine bottle, if you do not switch to the second one. As it is well-known, wine does have a long history: it was already drunk by Greeks in their symposia and it is remarkable that Athens based on the symposium not only the ability of controlling, but also that of using wine. Old and young people are all together and young people are trained, so to say: they are incited to drink in a restrained way to be then able to transfigure the emotion in singing, in story and through this to get to know many things. In other words, old and young people get to know each other: old people narrate, young people sing. And everyone was brought to that display of affection thanks to a wine, which was different from ours. It was a sort of original must, which needed to be diluted. However, that original must (from which wine continued to derivate) contained the strength of that primordial nature, which mankind has then somehow controlled and refined during the centuries. That is why a wine like Lambrusco, exploding with vitality but preserving a rather sour aftertaste, does not forget the origins. In brackets, even Heidegger, who spoke about the union between sky and earth in water and wine, could be considered a dionysiac. Vice versa, a too velvety wine has lost this charge and seems to be more suitable for very refined encounters between very civilized people. Lambrusco, on the contrary, has the power of the true genuine encounter between people, who are definitely civilized, but not so refined to become exhausted. It is a honest wine, they say. Carlo Sini, professor of the Lincean Academy Already Professor of theoretical philosophy at the State University of Milan. 07 08 09 010 011 012 013 LAMBRUSCO A SPARKLING PHILOSOPHY Lambrusco, a sparkling philosophy GIORGIO MELANDRI Journalist 014 The humble champagne of Emilia-Romagna. Thus, in the ‘50s, Mario Soldati defined Lambrusco in his unforgettable “Vino al vino” (Wine to wine). Much has changed since then, but Lambrusco, quoting Soldati again, remains a wine people mostly thinks they know about it, but they actually ignore it. The real strength of this story lies exactly in having gone through times by avoiding its rural soul to be in the limelight. It has done this in accord with a community, which has even hidden its nature, thus relegating the most authentic Lambrusco to farmer families’ habits. That is the reason why Lambrusco’s history is still authentic, plausible and thanks to a rare naturalness, it becomes story and discovery. Lambrusco is the emblem of an area, which reclaims its deepest identity and tries to ritualize it by involving memory and , above all, an extraordinary cuisine. It is no coincidence that many people, especially in the historical production areas, recognized their value after having been abruptly surprised by what they perfectly knew. Therefore, Lambrusco’s contemporary contribution is a story, finally passing through production areas and regaining the connection to the land; connection, which gives it a special, popular and high identity. This is the innovative element rendering this wine incomparable, since it is able of being among people and of sharing the taste of Emilian cuisine: extraordinary and popular, very refined and common, activist and engaged in recounting landscapes which are marked by wintry fogs and scorching summer days. To understand Lambrusco one should travel and sense these two extremes, go for several kilometers and meet people... One should enter an everyday life which remained true to its traditions over the centuries. This is the only way Lambrusco’s story becomes complete and those landscapes – little hills, canals, river banks of the vally, bricks of cities – reveal themselves in the glass. They are hidden but one can rather learn to see them. They are at hand but one has to learn to look for them. At that point, the endless multiplicity of areas and grape varieties becomes clear too and the word Lambrusco identifies a world of differences and nuances, of men’s and community’s stories, of landscapes not everyone has learned to understand. The connection to the land is the extra weapon recovered from the past and the opportunity of being included in a community capable of hidden celebrations in the area’s legendary fogs. Moreover, the community does protect a supply chain that , for its variety and quality, is unique in the world and was obstinately passed from generation to generation. As Alessandra Meldolesi says, it is a machina memorialis where the Memory creates a biography, from a producer to the next one and backwards until one is able to. And with Lambrusco the supply chain does go back to such an extent that it enriches the the present moment with a family of “sour” grapevines, different from all the other ones, unique and undoubtedly inimitable. 015 016 017 018 019 LAMBRUSCO A SPARKLING PHILOSOPHY CARLO GUTTADAURO Art Director - Photographer 020 Dreams of vine I have seen two areas merging in a dream. Connected by Lambrusco rather than by politics, by land and the Secchia river rather than by agreements: two passions that caused a flash by touching each other This flash has become a fire over the time, an increasing symphony. An interaction between pungency and arpeggios, between choreography and performance. “The moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too”, told Goethe. I tried to represent the philosophy animating this heavenly ferment (every philosophy originates from a wonder’s short). By looking into it, I have discovered other worlds. It implied a caesura in my previous knowledge to go through less known paths: a sentimental trip. From the roots to the bubbles looking for points of connection between beauty and truth. After a careful look at each Lambrusco bottle’s cork, one finds the memory of an ancient rhythm capable of winning over the present. Like a sparkling philosophy. 021 022 023 024 025 026 027 028 029 030 031 032 033 034 A ROAD TERRITORY 035 LAMBRUSCO A SPARKLING PHILOSOPHY 036 037 PRODUCERS CHIARLI 1860 – Pr.I.V.I.

How else could we define the vibration of a vine grasped in a whisper and in a high note, never separated from the emotional and gustative melody coming from tasting. The will to power, to energy are written in the destiny of an exquisite, essential and fragile wine, nearly devoid of tannic structure. A red sparkling wine: Lambrusco’s dual soul. The dawn mixed up with the setting sun and vice versa. The 042 transfiguration from a state of existence to a different one. The effervescence of present: the contemporary outburst of Lambrusco, which is presented in its different declinations, from a refermentation in the bottle to the care for details. Elements, which have determined a refined evolution of its production, thanks to the method Charmat Martinotti. Lambrusco is like true passion: it does not reveal its name to whom is not able of discovering it in the suggestions of its ruby, red nuances one can get from author photographs.
