Land: Italy, Emilia-Romagna
Grapes: Lambrusco Grasparossa
Notable: Certified Organic
Winery: Anthony Lynch describes the wine...."You might notice a brand-new mention adorning the back label of Moretto’s intoxicating dry Lambrusco: “Montebarello 155” refers to an association of growers within the Grasparossa di Castelvetro DOC, denoting wines crafted exclusively from hillside sites. Most Lambrusco is grown in the high-yielding, fertile plains of the Po Valley, and even within this small appellation only a portion of vineyards can boast the terroir perks of the cooler, drier foothills. In the glass, this translates to vivid and complex aromas of wild berries, penetrating flavor, and an almost dusty mineral backbone. Once again, Moretto sets the standard for dry sparkling red wine—the new vintage is dangerously hard to put down."
Alice Virden-Speer
store owner
As a longtime resident of the village of Hamilton, it has been my dream to provide a unique retail experience in the heart of Hamilton. Over the years, my husband Doug and I have been fortunate to gain experience with wine and liquor through our restaurant and catering business, Seven Oaks. It was during this time that my passion and interest for wine blossomed and I started to envision a liquor and wine store that would provide both an interesting and affordable selection of wines and offer fun ways to educate the community about wine. From this vision, Crush Bottleshop was born in September of 2019.
I continue to hone my understanding of wine with recent trips to Italy and France and sommelier courses, there is so much to learn! I offer monthly, free themed wine classes, regular tastings, and ideas for holiday pairings when our shop is running it’s regular hours.
I am always open to questions and suggestions, feel free to drop me a line.
