This super-dark, brambly, natural Lambrusco is the stuff of the old country. With dark, dusty tannins, berry flavors, and vibrant acidity, this earns its place on the dinner table with ease.
Lambrusco and conviviality go hand in hand, and Denny Bini’s red fizz has been a favorite of ours for so many get-togethers that we often informally call it festa, or party. This is a classic Emilian Lambrusco, with a more depth to the fruit, since Denny works so carefully in the vineyard: sweet-sour berries, with that classic Emilian bitter note on the finish.
