| Histoire |
The Lambrusco di Grasparossa is always part of the Lambruschi family, of the genus Vitis Vinifera, so it is not to be confused with American Vitis Lambrusca from which wine is forbidden. It is an autochthonous Emilian red berry, generally referred to as Lambrusco, as the Romans generally indicated the wild spontaneous vines that found on the borders, called labrums of the cultivated fields bruscum with the Latin word labrusca vitis, which later became Lambrusco in Italian. In particular, Lambrusco di Grasparossa is one of the most important and renowned families, along with Sorbara and Salamino. |
