What is this wine?
Paltrinieri “Solco” Lambrusco dell’Emilia 2024 is a semi-dry sparkling red made primarily from Lambrusco Salamino, grown in sandy soils near Modena, in the heart of Emilia-Romagna. The Paltrinieri family has cultivated Lambrusco in Sorbara for over three generations, and today Alberto Paltrinieri is a leading voice in redefining the region’s wines. “Solco” — meaning “furrow” or “groove” — represents the estate’s more generous, fruit-forward expression, crafted via the Metodo Martinotti (tank method) to highlight freshness and drinkability.
