Why We're Drinking Lambrusco This Summer

Catherine Doolan

Is there a drink for Summer 2020? Lambrusco! Lambrusco is a well-known wine that is making its way up the popularity list just in time for the summer.

Lambrusco can vary from a dry to sweet wine and is most often semi-sparkling. The red grapes are found in Northern Italy, the Emilia-Romagna region, and it is one of the oldest wines in Italy. The variance of Lambrusco wine makes the wine pairable with many different foods. Lambrusco gets its flavors from multiple berries including blackberries, boysenberries, cherries, strawberries, and raspberries. These fruity flavors make Lambrusco a great drink to sip on this Summer. 

Ventuini Baldini organically harvests Lambrusco wines in its winery located in the province of Reggio Emilia. They also harvest Lambrusco varieties like Sorbara, Grasparossa, and Salamino, all branches of Lambrusco made from different types of grapes.

So, next time you’re planning an outdoor meal, try a Lambrusco. It pairs well with cured meats, pizza, grilled meats, and burgers. This wine should be your go-to drink of the summer. Its pairing to almost any food, fruit flavor, and sparkling consistency will keep you happy and satisfied during a hot day.
