Wine List: Lambrusco To Liebfraumilch
Lambrusco, sometimes a red sparkling wine.
Lambrusco is a fizzy red, white, or rosé wine from the Emilia-Romagna region of northern Italy. It is the best selling Italian wine in the United States. Don't store it for a newborn's wedding or graduation from kindergarden, but enjoy it soon after purchase. Lambrusco is dry or slightly sweet and often tastes of ripe cherries. Suggested food pairings for dry Lambrusco include Catfish or a picnic meal. Suggested food pairings for sweet Lambrusco include fruit.
Liebfraumilch
Liebfraumilch is a sweet, low-alcohol German white produced for export. Germans rarely drink it. While this wine was once considered low quality, it has improved over the years. Suggested food pairings include Quiche and Salmon Mousse. See I Love German Wine and Food - A Rheinhessen Liebfraumilch for a review of a Liebfraumilch.
