Paltrinieri

Lambrusco from Emilia-Romagna's most respected subzone, reimagined for the modern palate.

Paltrinieri produces Lambrusco in Emilia-Romagna, the northeastern Italian region where this often-misunderstood grape finds its most authentic expression. Lambrusco here is dry, structured, and alive with acidity—a far cry from the sweet exports that defined it decades ago. The winery's Lambrusco di Sorbara, sourced from the denomination's most prestigious subzone, demonstrates the variety's capacity for elegance and complexity. Solco, also built on Lambrusco, offers a complementary expression of the grape's potential. Both wines have drawn attention from major critics including Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, and Decanter, reflecting the current reassessment of Lambrusco as a serious food wine and a window into Emilia-Romagna's viticultural identity.
