This lovely rosato is 70% Corvina, 20% Rondinella, and 10% Molinara, from organically tended vines on the Eastern shore of Lake Garda in the Veneto. Soils are rocky with clay. 12-36 hour maceration before natural fermentation and aged in stainless steel. 'Chiaretto' is the local name for rose made around Lake Garda.
The color is a pale peachy pink. With a few years of age, the notes of cantelope and peach have softened to the background, allowing the stony and herbaceous profile to pop. The palate has enough weight to be a versitile pairing for shrimp, lobster, risotto and spring vegetables.
