Seeking a dry, crisp and savory juice that pairs with just about anything and makes an excellent bottle to have by itself? Look for Lambrusco. Yes, Lambrusco.
Once known as the cheap, cheerful and fizzy plonk served with ice cubes, today’s top Lambruscos are a far cry from the industrially made, cloyingly sweet versions that flooded American shelves in the 1970s and ’80s.
The top wines of Lambrusco have such a verve, energy and happiness that you feel better after a few sips. I know I do!
