Wine & Spirits 101

Summer Enjoyment.

An amazing, off-the-beaten-path idea is Lambrusco! Lambrusco is actually the name of the grapes used to make it, as well as the name for this type of wine. They are usually produced in Emilia-Romagna in Northern Italy. Here’s what else you need to know:

  • slightly sparkling (frizzante)
  • red or rosé
  • range from bone-dry to slightly sweet
  • usually lower in alcohol than some Champagnes and heavier sparklers 
  • pairs great with appetizers, cheeses, and charcuterie.
