The Lambrusco grape has deep, deep roots in Italian winemaking history and over sixty documented clones of the grape. A lot of people made so-so Lambrusco for years, but these days it’s getting a major face lift from guys like Francesco Vezzelli. Fransesco didn’t exactly just get good at winemaking– he’s been making wine since 1958 and his Lambrusco is easily one of the best expressions you can find. He’s deeply respected by his peers and his won many local awards.
He’s been making wine since 1958 and controls every aspect of the operation from winemaking to ensuring his wine is temperature controlled every step of the way to America because he says it’s essential to preserve the wine’s freshness and incredibly fragrant aromatics. This is a delicious sparkler that is guaranteed to be the freshest, most enjoyable sparkling Lambrusco you’ve ever tasted. Precious few bottles ever leave Romagna, so this will definitely be the only chance you have at this uber-rare and unique bottling.

92 Points, Vinous – 91 Points, Wine Spectator
Feudo Montoni has been one of the best producers in Italy for literally hundreds of years, most notably for their work with Nero D’Avola grape in Sicily. It’s a gorgeous expression at such a good price. The 2020 “Lagnusa” is the perfect pizza or Thanksgiving wine with juicy black fruits, grippy tannins and a wonderful, fresh and herbaceous finish. Vinous Media gave the wine 92 points and raved, calling it “remarkably fresh yet long, leaving the mouth watering while still resonating on hints of blackberry.” You’re going to love this.
91 Points, Tasting Panel – 90 Points, Wine Enthusiast
There’s a consistency to Pierre Sparr wines that consumers just know they can count on throughout the entire portfolio. The wines deliver aromatics, elegance, clean fruit and are packed with vibrancy. They also happen to be extremely food-friendly, especially in the past few vintages where yields were down but quality rose to an all-time high. This is a bone-dry beauty with layers of citrus fruits, framed by wet stone and mineral character that adds dimension.

If you’ve never heard of Bisci, let’s start here. Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate called Giuseppe Bisci’s Verdicchio “one of the finest I’ve ever tasted,” and noted that “Verdicchio is one of the joys of Italian oenology that rarely gets the respect it deserves, and few producers do it better than Bisci.” A staple at $85/bottle for both French Laundry and Eleven Madison Park. “Verdicchio is one of the joys of Italian oenology that rarely gets the respect it deserves, and few producers do it better than Bisci.” – The Wine Advocate
2016 happens to be one of the highest rated ever (98pts, Wine Spectator) so it was no surprise that this year’s made the cut. The 2016 Riserva which was just released, is an intense version steeped in complex layers of flavor. It’s compact and well built with a touch of leather that compliments dark cherries, fresh licorice and a hint of cocoa all framed on a mineral backbone.
