Originally, this name meant simply &#8220;wine from wild grapes&#8221; and refers to a number of local varieties, many of which are still used today: Grasparossa, Maestri, Marani, Monstericco, Salamino, Sorbara. And all different varieties of Lambrusco, despite the fact that in many sources they are called the clones of the same variety. Now the names of these varieties are used as &#8220;brand&#8221; of wine to distinguish between the range of results that can give those local varieties.<br \/>\nMore on that below.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe history of Lambrusco is awesome and at the same time sad.\n <\/p>\n<p>\nOn the one hand, this is the perfect grapes, which for many years. When you drink Lambrusco, you are drinking wine, which was enjoyed by the ancient Romans. They loved wine from Lambrusco. It is easy to grow, it gave good yields and was very popular. It is possible to imagine Caesar sipping Lambrusco from your Cup, eating a slice of cheese and curled eyes their possessions&#8230;\n<\/p>\n<p>\nOver the past century came to light the many varieties of Lambrusco. By the end of the 20th century, ampelography had more than 60 varieties of this sort. Novice wine lovers to understand that it is not easy.<br \/>\nIf you take, for example, Chardonnay grapes \u2013 it will all be genetically identical. It was enough centuries ago to find the perfect Chardonnay \u2013 and many years later, we still have copies of the very first vines. Just as in the case of, for example, with the Apple variety red delicious.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nHowever, in the case of Lambrusco is not so simple. In the wild it is pollinated easily with vines of other varieties \u2013 as it happens, for example, with dandelions and other wild flowers. The result is a number of varieties of Lambrusco. Yes, they taste similar \u2013 as similar to that of the dandelions, but still, they are not exactly the same as most modern wine-making varieties.\n<\/p>\n<h2>Star and the sadness of Lambrusco way<\/h2>\n<p>\nWhen came the 1970s, America came the fashion for cheap sweet wine, and Lambrusco became extremely popular. It cost cheap, and, despite the fact that this wine is made in a dry version, the Italians filled the American market of sweet options, because the consumer demanded it.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nSo. The sad part of the history of Lambrusco starts with the development of the taste wine lovers. In the Soviet Union, too, the majority preferred the semi-sweet and sweet wines. And even prestigious in those days the ruler of the collections of Massandra is fortified and sweet, particularly the Muscat wine.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nNow is a different era, with different preferences and ideas about what should be &#8220;good wine&#8221;. And all that was popular in the Soviet Union and America of the &#8216; 70s automatically falls into the category of &#8220;not&#8221;. That clich\u00e9 has got not only a sweet wine, but incomprehensible to many today pink. Because of the fashion the style and the color of the wine, many people overlook a worthy and interesting examples of &#8220;unfashionable&#8221; wines \u2013 both in budget and premium segment, from affordable pink Portuguese &#8220;Vinho Verde&#8221; to the luxurious Austrian sweet &#8220;ice wines.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<h2>Lambrusco labels<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/6f7f13b604d847262e3c82af302a3877.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\nTrying to keep a reputation, the Italians are attempting to limit the use of the name &#8220;Lambrusco&#8221; on a label exclusively Italian wine.
