Description

Bresaola beef is salted and air dried in cool mountain caves in Valtellina (Lombardy).

The meat is incredibly juicy, melts on the tongue, and has a nice balance between salt and sweetness.

Bresaola works well with bubbles, full-bodied whites, dry rosés, and many reds.

Lambrusco is often a winner with cured meat because of the good acidity and fruit. Bubbles help to cut the fat and it is low in alcohol, an advantage when salumi makes you thirsty.
