The first bottle was corked, but the second came quickly to the rescue. Boom! Absolutely singing. Roses, cherries, and spices on the nose. On the palate, red and black fruits, orange peel, and a nice earthy edge. Full-bodied with chewy tannins, yet the finish was almost ethereal. Loved the energy here! Plus, there’s plenty of stuffing to age. — a year ago

Lovely orange. Almond and cider. As others note, a bit less chewy than Radikons. A good intro versus some of the other more concentrated bottles. — a year ago

Funkiest Lambrusco I’ve had. Likely Serapateona grape variety based on color. No sulfur additions per the producer. Wow. — a year ago

29th Anniversary wine. Rich toast, wet earth, grass, ( wheat) yeasty and leezy. Caramel like nougat.
Delicious. Very fine bubbles*. There’s a hint of lemon but it’s not acidic.
Bravo!
