Medici Ermete has a 136-year history and is located in the most suitable area for Lambrusco production in Reggio Emilia. The Medici family, now in its fifth generation, has always pursued a clear objective: to produce Lambrusco of the highest quality. Generation after generation, the family has built a strong heritage of knowledge, expertise, and commitment to this iconic wine.
Today, the estate benefits from extensive experience both in the vineyard—through family-owned estates cultivated under organic farming practices—and in the cellar. The winery is based in Gaida, in the province of Reggio Emilia, along the Via Emilia, the region’s most important historic trade route.
The family-owned vineyards are entirely managed according to organic viticulture and are located across Reggio Emilia and Modena, in the areas best suited for Lambrusco production. The winemaking team combines skilled oenologists with advanced technology dedicated to the production of sparkling and semi-sparkling wines.
At the end of 2021, Medici Ermete obtained “Sustainable Company” certification under the Equalitas standard. Today, the estate is recognized as one of the leading producers in both quality and volume across the Emilia-Romagna region.
