Vitivinicola Fangareggi:

Authentic, vivacious Lambrusco

Vitivinicola Fangareggi was officially founded in 2005 by Giuseppe Fangareggi, but the family has been grape growing since the 1800s – each generation raised on bread and Lambrusco. Today, Giuseppe's son, Matteo, runs the farm along with his mother, Margherita, and his uncle, Roberto. Certified organic, Giuseppe and Roberto manage the vineyards while Margarita takes care of reception and Matteo handles production. Fruit is sourced across eight parcels in the provinces of Reggio Emilia and Modena, with diverse grape varieties depending on terroir. In the cellar, Matteo uses only indigenous yeasts for primary fermentation to produce a range of sparkling wines – white, pink and red – with a focus on traditional, dark Lambrusco from the Salamino variant. Embrace Italy’s fizz obsession and showcase these authentic, vivacious wines with cured meats, wedges of Parmigiano-Reggiano and good times.

Made from 85% Lambrusco di Sorbara and 15% Salamino vinified as white, ‘Biancospino’ flips Lambrusco on its head, creating a vivacious sparkling white with Lambrusco soul. Fangareggi’s ultra-vibrant Rosato is also based on the elegant, light Lambrusco di Sorbara with some Fortana and Pinot Noir while their luscious, earthy-yet-fruity ‘Vigna Nera’ is a seductive, darkly-traditional blend of Lambrusco Salamino and Ancellotta.
