What is Lambrusco?

Lambrusco is a wine made in northern Italy, primarily in the Emilia-Romagna region. Because it has a low alcohol content, it is often found on breakfast and lunch tables in Italy. This wine is made using the same ``Charmat method'' as Italy's representative sparkling wine, Prosecco, and you can enjoy its gentle bubbles. It is well known for its fruity, slightly sweet red (Rosso) and sparkling wine, but in addition to red, white (Bianco) and rosé (Rosato) are also produced. This wine has a wide variety of flavors, ranging from sweet to dry.
