Reggiano

The signature grape is Lambrusco, backed by Ancellotta.

The climate is continental.

The vineyards themselves read as hills and plains.

Sparkling red wine, dry red wine and sweet red wine, plus one more is what the region is known for, and in the glass it shows vibrant and effervescent wine, ranging from off-dry to semi-sweet, its sweetness and light pink in color, plus one more.
