Staff Pick Notes

The first time I tried Lambrusco, I was in Parma, Italy and had no idea what I was ordering. I was young and early in my wine journey so just went for the least expensive item on the list. While initially quite the surprise (I was expecting still wine), I instantly fell in love with Lambrusco for the incredibly wide array of foods that it pairs with. Plus they are typically great values! The Zucchi "Marascone" is made traditionally: its deep purple color and slight fizz makes a striking, dramatic entrance into your glass. It is quite dry, and the structure makes it a great choice not only for a meat-and-cheese platter, but the "Marascone" can also stand up to most white meat dishes too. I love to use it to introduce friends to Lambrusco, and have yet to find someone who didn't love it!
