Lambrusco

Sparkling red wine

Lambrusco is a lightly sparkling red wine from the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy.

It ranges from dry to sweet, with the sweeter versions dominating American markets for decades.

Often served chilled, it has a fruity, slightly fizzy character: We opened a bottle of Lambrusco with the pizza.
