- Peepers - 09-10-2001
I am looking as to who sells Lambrusco
(red Riunite) wine? It's a sweet red, and the only place that i tried it was at the Olive Garden.
Any suggestions?

Jeepers, Peepers....you should be able to find it at any wine shop. It's a very broad, commercially made inexpensive wine.

You don't even need to go to a wine shop. Its on every grocery store shelf for like 5 bucks. The idiots at Olive Garden have marked it up at over 300%. Selling it for 16 bucks. The lady pouring it at their door for a tasting had the nerve to say "not bad for a restaurant markup."
Also, I wonder what Roberto will have to say when he sees this one when he gets back from Brazil....

GOOD Lambrusco is a wonderful thing...but we are talking about Riunite here. Nasty industrial stuff of the first order. Very Popular here in Rio as well as it is the cheapest imported wine in the market.
Stuck here until further notice (no flights!), Roberto
