Pra di Bosso - Lambrusco Reggiano Amabile

  • Sale
  • Regular price $18.50


Pra di Bosso, our first single vineyard wine, made since the early 1980s. It marked itself out from other Lambruscos right from the start and its very name echoes the ability of the wine to mark out boundaries.

Bosso – box trees – were used to mark where one vineyard ended and another began. This is what Pra di Bosso is still doing, as the ultimate benchmark for Lambrusco Reggiano making, and a unique, historic one at that.

This boundary line has deep roots in Emilian food and wine traditions, telling of our origins and bringing the best out of them.
