Le Grotte
Rosso Dolce Reggiano Lambrusco
Reggiano, Reggio Emilia, Emilia-Romagna, Italy

This wine is slightly frizzante upon pouring, the purple bubbles dissipating quickly. A whiff reveals fragrant, ripe cherries and concord grapes. The palate is soft and round, full of fresh fruit, a touch of earth and some tingly acidity. Complexity is not the issue here, as it might be with other Lambruscos. This is an extremely drinkable and food-friendly wine. A true bargain.

A sweet red from Italy. Nicely balanced and simple.
Showing black and red fruits with honey and sugar. Simple enough.
Good for parties or as a dessert.
Better when properly chilled.
8.5% alcohol by volume.
