Corte Gardoni Bardolino Chiaretto Nichesole Rose 2022

Pale pink in color, this dry rosé called Chiaretto comes from the Piccolis, who have owned vineyards in these parts for more than four centuries. The family’s experience and the underrated excellence of this terroir of glacial moraine—south of the lake and at the western limit of the Veneto region—explain why this bottle offers such outstanding character and class.

With notes of white peach, melon, and grapefruit, this Chiaretto is the quintessential Italian rosato for a summer evening al fresco with a heaping plate of fresh, sauce-laden pasta.

Blend: 50% Corvina, 25% Rondinella, 25% Molinara, Barbera & Sangiovese
