We are Lambrusco lovers. As we tested coupe after coupe of fast red bubbles at a favorite downtown LA perch last summer, it became clear that we needed a car in the race. On a track filled with Lambo, we pay homage to Ferrari.

Enzo is a carbonic maceration of Freisa expressed as a pet nat riff on a Piemontese classic. Where in the heck did we find Freisa? The Siletto family farms a an incredible array of classic Italian varieties in Tres Pinos, near Hollister in San Benito County.
