EMILIA-ROMAGNA, ITALY

Labrusca is the ancient Roman name for the family of Lambrusco grape varieties, believed by many to be among the earliest grapes used to produce wine.

Dry and a gorgeous pink color with notes of raspberries and cherries. Balanced with a pleasant acidity and a lively freshness. Made in the Charmat method where a still Lambrusco is produced and then racked to temperature-controlled tanks where a second fermentation is provoked. It’s then aged on its lees until the desired complexity and nuance are achieved.

Food Pairings: Proscuitto, pepperoni pizza, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese on Italian bread.
