The Fangareggi Story
In the heart of Emilia-Romagna, between Modena and Reggio Emilia, lies Vitivinicola Fangareggi, a family-owned organic winery and farm where four generations have tended the same vines. Much has changed over the decades, but the family's philosophy has never wavered: to craft honest, authentic wines meant to be poured generously, shared freely, and savored around the table.

The Fangareggi family farms organically, guided by the belief that great wine begins with healthy grapes and a deep respect for the land. Through every season, from the quiet precision of winter pruning to the anticipation of harvest, they walk their rows, ensuring each cluster arrives at the cellar in perfect condition. Lambrusco is their specialty, and their great love.

Beyond Italy's borders, too many know only the mass-produced versions of this historic wine. The family is devoted to revealing its true character: fresh, elegant, wonderfully suited to the table, and brimming with personality. From the traditional grape varieties of their land, they craft several expressions of Lambrusco and Pignoletto. Alongside their classic sparkling wines, they produce Pét-Nat wines and a small run of Traditional Method sparkling, aged on the lees for more than two years. Production is intentionally limited. Smaller batches allow the family to follow every step themselves, from vine to bottle, so that each release carries the quality they insist upon.

In Emilia-Romagna, one of Italy's most celebrated food regions, wine is woven into daily life. Fangareggi wines are made for the table: for family, for good company, for everything from a casual pizza night to the most special of dinners.

Today, the family shares its wines with friends around the world, while remaining, at heart, the same family winery it has always been. When you open a bottle of Fangareggi, you taste more than wine. You discover a small piece of Emilia, the story of a family, and the passion they pour into everything they do.
