Capitalizing on the Growth of the Spritz and Low-ABV Preferences, Riunite Expands Its Reach Across a New Generation of Drinkers NEW YORK, June 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Riunite, the historic Italian wine brand and global leader in Lambrusco, announces a series of local tasting events across the U.S. in celebration of National Lambrusco Day on June 21, 2025. These events are part of a broader, nationwide campaign designed to honor the occasion and reintroduce Lambrusco to today's wine drinker, while maintaining Riunite's position as the global leader in the category.

"With these activations, Riunite is cementing its role as the driving force behind National Lambrusco Day—making it a key moment for both the brand and the broader Lambrusco category. And what better way to celebrate National Lambrusco Day, honor Riunite's legacy, and showcase the lively, food-friendly character of the wine." Italy's largest wine group—and currently the #1 selling Italian red value brand under $11 in the U.S.— is once again winning over a new generation of consumers by combining nostalgic appeal with a fresh, modern twist. After nearly three decades as one of the top 10 imported wines in the U.S., the brand is experiencing renewed momentum through a nationwide marketing campaign focused on the experience/occasion of pizza / pairing to introduce the brand and the larger Lambrusco category in an approachable and accessible way. With an AI-powered pizza contest that has become a standout element of its efforts to engage a new generation of consumers, already attracting over 12,000 participants across the country, with winners set to receive a year's supply of pizza. To reinforce its strong position in the category and celebrate National Lambrusco Day, Riunite has invested in a refreshed digital presence, including a new website, along with social media, influencer partnerships, strategic communications, and paid media initiatives. Additionally, events in partnership with Liquid Productions will be held in cities across the country, including NYC, Milwaukee, Nashville, Chicago, Dallas, and Tampa Bay.
