“LABRUSCA” Lambrusco in Red & White! HIP SIPS OF SUMMER!
Since 1910, the LINI family of Correggio in Emilia Romagna has made traditional Lambrusco, the dry, lightly sparkling red wine. A real Lambrusco is a delightful treat, not syrupy, but refreshing. “Labrusca” is the grape’s ancient name, from where it grew at the edges of the fields. Try these refreshing Lambruscos from Fabio Lini and daughter Alicia at your next summer gathering!
2007 LINI LAMBRUSCO Rosso “Labrusca” $15.99
The Lini family’s “traditional” Lambrusco Rosso, low in alcohol, with bright acidity and loads of fruit, is a perfect pairing for the classic dishes of Emilia like lasagne and tagliatelle bolognese, tortellini in brodo, and the region’s famous cured meats (prosciutto, culatello, etc.) and Parmigiano Reggiano.

2007 LINI LAMBRUSCO Bianco “Labrusca” $15.99
Labrusco Bianco “has a scent of red apples and white grapes,” writes Ray Isle, wine editor of Food & Wine Magazine, “and a racy zestiness that makes it an ideal aperitif wine.” Serve it with Prosciutto, cantalope wedges, and grissini.
