Reunite Lambrusco
Riunite Lambrusco Frizzante is a reminder that yes, sparkling red wine absolutely exists and deserves more love. This wine comes from Emilia Romagna, the historic centre of Italy’s Lambrusco grapes. Lightly sparkling with an easygoing, off-dry style, it delivers vibrant red fruit and gentle fizz at an impressively approachable price, typically around twelve to fifteen dollars, making it one of the most accessible sparkling reds on the market.

Food Pairing Recommendations
Fancy: Grilled ribeye with herb butter – The wine’s gentle sweetness and lively acidity cut through the richness of the ribeye, while its bright red berry character creates a surprising but harmonious contrast with the savoury herb butter.
Everyday: A classic cheeseburger – The frizzante bubbles refresh the palate between bites, and the wine’s fruity, off-dry profile works naturally with melted cheese, seasoned beef & tangy sauce.
