We were thrilled to learn that Daniele Cernilli (above), one of the world’s preeminent Italian wine writers, has named our 2006 Lambrusco In Correggio Rosso “the best Lambrusco of the year” in his forthcoming Doctor Wine Guide to the wines of Italy.

He awarded the wine a whopping 95 points!

We couldn’t be more pleased.

Many of you will remember Daniele as one of the founding editors of the Gambero Rosso guide.

In recent years, he’s devoted his time to his own project, Doctor Wine, a bi-lingual online tasting note portal where he and his editors also profile leading Italian wineries and wines (the site has a ton of great English-language content, btw).

Thank you, Daniele, and thank you, Doctor Wine!

The new guide will be presented next month in Milan at a gala event. Lini will be there… with bells on!
