Borgofulvia Lambrusco Rosso Dolce is a delightfully vibrant, semi-sparkling (frizzante) sweet red wine hailing from the renowned Emilia-Romagna region of Northern Italy.

We LOVE this wine. It's fun, fabulous and incredible drinkable, a real customer favourite. It's brimming with juicy red berry fruit and gently lifted by a soft, refreshing effervescence, this indulgent red fizz offers a irresistibly lush, lower-alcohol option that is meant to be served chilled.

Tasting Notes & Style: Crafted using natural fermentation in stainless steel pressure tanks to preserve its intense fruit aromas, this sweet sparkling red delivers a beautifully balanced and playful sensory profile:

The Nose: Expressive and fragrant aromas of crushed ripe blackberries, wild strawberries, dark cherry jam, and a delicate floral touch of violet. • The Palate: Rich, smooth, and fruit-forward with a luscious sweetness that is kept perfectly lively by a light, creamy mousse and bright natural acidity. • The Finish: Clean, juicy, and wonderfully refreshing, leaving a delicious lingering note of fresh summer berries without feeling cloying.

Best For & Gifting Occasions 

  • Ideal Alternative to: Sweet sparkling wines, Ruby Port, Brachetto d'Acqui, or sangria. 
  • Perfect Gift For: Anyone who loves fruity, sweet red wines, lovers of Italian aperitivo culture, or hosts looking for a fun dessert wine. The perfect wine for Christmas day and valentines day. A perfect wine for BBQs, date nights and for red wine lovers looking for a chilled and sparkling wine.
  • Serving Tip: Best served well-chilled (8–10°C) in a wine glass

Food Pairing Guide

The sweet berry profile and lively fizz of this Lambrusco make it an remarkably versatile match for both savory delicacies and rich desserts:

  • Spicy Dishes: Italian spicy sausage pizza, sticky BBQ ribs, or mildly spiced Asian cuisine.
  • Desserts & Fruit: Dark chocolate tarts, berry pavlova, cherry pie, or simple fresh strawberries and cream.
