About

Lambrusco is a true symbol of northern Italy. It’s an ancient wine made from a grape variety that has been unique to the Emilia region since before the Roman empire. Made in a frizzante style, it is a lightly sparkling, fruit-forward wine with some floral notes. Its lush, crisp, and semi-sweet taste makes it the perfect crowd-pleaser at parties and go-to for intimate moments of joy and delight.

Terroir

From the foothills and plains of the Reggio Emilia and Modena zones. Fertile, deep and medium-mixture grounds, 800 feet above sea level.

Vinification

The pressing and brief maceration of select grapes is followed by the fermentation of the must at controlled temperature. A second fermentation, using the Charmat method, imparts the characteristic sparkling note.
