I can totally see why Wine Enthusiast magazine called this “one of the best Lambrusco’s out there” and chose it as one of their Top 10 wines for 2017. Ruby-coloured, spritzy and beautifully dry, it’s wine with a whiff of wild strawberry and grapefruit zest and a mouthfeel replete with racy, bracing acidity and texture. Paltrinieri make their Lambrusco traditionally, with wild yeasts and without fining or filtration (hence the hazy colour) so if you’ve only ever tasted supermarket Lambrusco before, strap yourself in because this is skyscrapers’ above in terms of quality.
Sip with: slivers of prosciutto.
