  Lambrusco - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lambrusco is the name of both a red grape and an Italian varietal wine made principally from the grape.
Although traditional Lambrusco is almost entirely cork-stopped, dry red wine, the Lambrusco Reggiano DOC is also used to make amabile (slightly sweet) wine through use of up to 15 percent of the Ancellotta grape.
This Lambrusco wine became hugely popular in the United States in the late 1970s when over 3 million cases were exported there each year.
