Lambrusco Ruberti, Lombardy, Italy
Like a new star appeared in the bubbly red sky and formed a freshly twinkling constellation for us to contemplate our existences over. Brand new to Ontario, meet Villa Picta! Young, passionate winegrower and maker Paolo Pasini, and author/NYC *star* sommelier Amanda Smeltz have teamed up and are defining lambrusco in their own terms. Paolo’s three hectares of familial river valley vineyards sit in southern Lombardy at the intersection of Veneto and Emilia-Romagna, focusing on the regional varieties in the Lambrusco family that deserve their minimal-intervention moments in the sun and welcoming non-regional grapes that they believe make perfect sense to plant. FUN FACT! Ruberti is one of lambrusco’s hyper-specific expressions of place, only grown in Mantova! Spritely bubbles that burst like flowers opening, freeze dried strawberry, wilted fennel meets blackberry bramble catches, shells, French soap on a rope & a fierce, salty acidity. The pair recommend enjoying with tortellini en brodo, and don’t forget to give the broth a little sip.

We don't know if you've heard this, but Canada is a truly WILD place to import wine. Each province is it's own country with super strict rules. For ages, so much of the very best natural wine never made it into the province. That is changing in such an exciting way. We started our own import company to bring you some of our very favourite wines from around the world at the sharpest prices - this allows us to travel, fall in love with a wine, and bring right to your doorstep without a middle person. Put simply, as the importer, we shave one layer off the supply chain. We offer these sweet wholesale discounts when you bundle. From 1, 3 to 6 packs you'll find serious savings. The GWI sticker - Grape Witch Imports - means not only that we strongly stand behind the producer, it also means you won't find a better deal anywhere else in town. It also allows us to source many wines just for the shop - you'll find Ontario exclusives marked GWIE - Grape Witch Import Exclusive. Are you a licensee or producer looking to join our imports roster? Send us an email at hello@grapewitchimports.com
