What the Fizz?
LambruscoFest is an annual event honoring Emilia-Romagna, the bread basket of Italy. Lambrusco is the traditional wine of the region. Varying from white to red, and fruity to meaty, this frizzante (lightly sparkling) wine pairs perfectly with the amazing food of Italy. Join us in 2020 for a celebration of food, wine and family, as we bring the tastes of Emilia-Romagna to Downtown Durham.
