Lambrusco

Sparkling red. Not the sweet stuff — dry, chilled, and revolutionary.

Forget the sickly-sweet grocery store version. Real Lambrusco from Emilia-Romagna is a dry, sparkling red (or rose) with dark cherry, violets, and a refreshing fizz that makes it the only red wine you'd willingly chill. Pair it with prosciutto, pizza, or mortadella — basically everything the region is famous for. Sommeliers have been preaching the Lambrusco gospel for a decade.
