Tasting Note:
Inky ruby with a soft, lively mousse and a burst of dark fruit. Black cherry, plum, and wild blackberry meet violet, cocoa, and a faint earthy spice. Dry and balanced, with juicy acidity and subtle tannin grip. Finishes fresh, vinous, and savory—Lambrusco for real wine lovers. Perfect with pizza, charcuterie, fried chicken, or rich pasta dishes.

About the Producer:
Tenuta La Piccola is a small, family-run estate in the hills south of Modena specializing in honest, characterful Lambrusco. Farming is sustainable and harvests are by hand, favoring ripe, balanced fruit over mass production. In the cellar, the team works simply—native fermentations, moderate pressure, and minimal sulfur—to craft wines that feel authentic to Emilia: dark, sparkling, and full of life. Picol Ross is their signature bottling—dry, aromatic, and deeply satisfying.
