This is what good wine from the Lambrusco grape tastes like

A good red wine made from the Lambrusco grape is dry and light, with fresh raspberry and berry flavors and a lively bitterness on the finish. A good Lambrusco is low in alcohol and highly drinkable.

This is true for a good Lambrusco wine. It's worth mentioning, though, because for decades, Lambrusco was sweetened, bottled in cheap screw-top bottles, and shipped in large containers to Western Europe and America. Only to appear cheaper than Coca-Cola on the shelves of your local supermarket. Often, a little CO2 was injected into the bottle to complete the "party." Lambrusco's reputation leaves much to be desired.

And this is unfair, because this grape can produce excellent wines. These come from Emilia-Romagna, come in corked bottles, and cost more than Coca-Cola. You can find them at upscale liquor stores, and there's no reason to avoid them. Lambrusco di Sorbada, Lambrusco Grapsparossa di Castelvetro, and Lambrusco di Salamino di Santa Croce are generally the best.
