For a crisp, characterful and aromatic rosato, this is 96 points bang on. It’s an authentic taste of Bardolino’s Chiaretto – an intensely pink rosé made from native grapes Corvina and Rondinella. Mineral fresh, citrusy with classic red berry notes.

Bardolino is a less well known appellation of northeastern Italy, next door to Valpolicella. Both make very fresh wines of all hues, thanks partly to the proximity of the mountains. Walter Delibori and Giorgio Cristoforetti founded Cantine Delibori – at the heart of the appellation and close to Lake Garda – 40 years ago. They work with a number of estates, the grapes for this pretty pink coming from Cà del Fer. It uses the classic grapes of this area – Corvina and Rondinella (the same as in Valpolicella) – the juice left on the skins for just a few hours to lend a delicate hue to the wine. Cherry fruit, floral hints and a bright, lemony, mineral freshness – a perfectly balanced rosato for drinking solo, with salads, seafood or creamy pasta.

"Bardolino’s classic charm – lots of breezy freshness and delicate, blossom scented red fruits" Leo Bassano
