This style is incredibly high-quality, made from the Grasparossa di Castelvetro grape in the northern Italian region of Emilia-Romagna, from the fairytale-esque estate of Tenuta Pederzana. The property spans 14 hectares of vineyards, woodlands, and a natural lake that is as pretty as a painting. Clay soils, cool nights, and southeast and east-facing vineyards allow the vines to flourish, producing some of the highest quality Grasparossa grapes you’ll find anywhere.

This is immensely aromatic, fruity, and tannic – and brilliant next to an assortment of foods (particularly holiday and winter meals) – bringing notes of brambly blackberries, dried cherry, tarragon, sage, and chalk dust. It’s fresh and vivacious with dusty tannins, a full body, and loads of character – especially given the price.

About The Producer

Tenuta Pederanza is a boutique estate in Castelvetro, Emilia-Romagna, dedicated to preserving a rare, historic clone of Grasparossa — a varietal long associated with the region’s most distinctive Lambrusco. The modern chapter began after World War II, when founder Franco Simonini, collaborating with the University of Bologna, identified and propagated a uniquely expressive vine; today the estate is run by his descendants, who tend roughly 14 hectares scattered across gently sloping hillsides, farming with care and producing Lambrusco that honors tradition while embracing modern standards of quality. Their goal remains rooted in respect for the local terroir: hand-harvested grapes, precise viticulture, and wines that showcase Grasparossa’s dark fruit, structure, and regional character, presented with authenticity and heart.
