If you’re an acid-head, and also like lasagna, there’s no better grape to look for in Emilia-Romagna than Sorbara. Long considered the more mineral-driven and less fruity Lambrusco grape, Sorbara makes sparkling wines that are racy - tingling with unripe red fruits. SPUMA is bottle fermented from our friend Denny Bini. Generations ago, according to Denny, it was always a bit of a revelation for farmers going down into the cellar to see if a bottle of their fermented wine would actually undergo secondary fermentation, and had the fizz or spuma ooze out. If it did, one declared Spuma! in anticipatory celebration of something fizzy for a meal or aperitivo. FUSO is our project to search for and bottle Italy’s natural and characterful daily drinkers. We work with farmers and producer friends who are committed to organic viticulture, low-intervention, and terroir-driven wines.
