    The Path

    A prior trade in sports journalism gave Alberto Pezzuoli practice in reading pace, character, and telling detail. In wine, that same discipline sits behind the production of Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro at Azienda Agricola Pezzuoli.

    The Work Today

    Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro is the center of the current practice at the estate. Alberto Pezzuoli’s work is defined by that narrow frame: one wine, one place, and the Pezzuoli family name carried on the label.
