What are the top Sangiovese and Lambrusco wines and wine labels in Italy? You can, of course, drink through the lot of them and come up with an opinion, but it's better to draw up a short list first.
Top Sangiovese and Lambrusco Wines
This is exactly what the DISFIDA DEL GUSTO in Forlimpopoli, the Corte di Casa Artusi, does very nicely every year.
During 'Romagna&Sangiovese - Emilia&Lambrusco - quando il vino è terroir…', a sommelier takes visitors through a selection of the 30 top rated Sangiovese di Romagna and Lambrusco of Emilia.
A real wine derby between the two distinct halves of the region.
Technically, the wines have nothing in common, its territorial identity that counts and gastronomic local rivalry.
So, in the red corner, representing SANGIOVESE DI ROMAGNA we have:
Azienda Agricola Zuffa Imola, Azienda Vitivinicola Tre Monti Imola, Villa Spadoni – Fattoria Cornacchia Fontanelice (Imola), Azienda Agricola Trerè Faenza, Azienda Vitivinicola La Sabbiona Oriolo ai Fichi(Faenza), Azienda Vitivinicola Il Pratello Modigliana, Drei Donà Tenuta La Palazza Forlì, Tenuta Pennita Terra del Sole, Fattoria Casetto dei Mandorli Predappio, Azienda Agricola Rocca le Camminate Meldola, Campo del Sole Vinery Bertinoro, Fattoria Paradiso Bertinoro, Vini Pregiati Celli Bertinoro, Cantine Spalletti Colonna di Paliano Savignano sul Rubicone, Cantina Braschi Tenuta del Gelso Mercato Saraceno, Azienda Agricola San Valentino Rimini, CantinaCasa Zanni Villa Verucchio
In the white corner, carrying the colors of LAMBRUSCO DELL’EMILIA, a big hand for:
Cantine Ceci Torrile (Parma), Fattorie Ferrarini Reggio Emilia, Cantina Gualtieri Reggio Emilia, Lini Oreste Correggio (Reggio Emilia), Cantine Riunite Campegine (Reggio Emilia), Medici Ermete Reggio Emilia, Cantine Lombardini Novellara (Reggio Emilia), Chiarli 1860 Modena, Cantina Barbolini Casinalbo di Formige - Modena, Corte Manzini Castelvetro (Modena), Dispensa Begarelli - Castelfranco Emilia (MO), Fiorini Ganaceto (Modena), Cantina Settecani Castelvetro (Modena), Cavicchioli S. Prospero (Modena), Az agricola Zanasi Castelnuovo Rangone (Modena).
Both wines are accompanied with the Emilia Romagna region's best typical products such as formaggio di fossa, extra virgin olive oil, jams and marmellate.
Those who can't make it to the big fight can head to Ristorante Casa Artusi and any of the restaurants in Forlimpopoli
