Chiaretto di Bardolino DOC

CHIARETTO DI BARDOLINO DOC

Chiaretto di Bardolino DOC is the rosé version of our principal wine and since 2002 is that which has been best received, also by the international market. The progressive work to syncronise the variables which include picking conditions – temperature – length of exposure on the skins, has enabled us to produce a Chiaretto di Bardolino DOC which, also thanks to the tone of it’s colour allows it to stand proudly beside the best international wines in this category.
