Tomato Wheels

Last fall we discovered Tomato Wheels Lambrusco at an event and have been fans ever since. Local indigenous entrepreneur and Tomato Wheels founder Moirae Choquette saw a gap in the market for this variety and took a leap of faith working with local sommelier Brad Royale and a fourth-generation, family-owned-and-operated vineyard in Italy to create a lovely, dark purple Lambrusco. This sparkling red wine is designed to be sipped chilled. Made with the salamino grapes native to Emilia-Romagna in Italy, it’s available in several liquor stores throughout Alberta. Pair this wine with the usual suspects like pizza and charcuterie, or try with fried chicken, burgers or poured over vanilla ice cream.
