Goto Bardolino

This remarkably bright, joyful, and highly energetic organic Italian red opens with a radiant bouquet of crunchy red cherries, wild strawberries, and red currants, beautifully accented by high-toned notes of fresh violet petals, white pepper, and a touch of savory wild thyme. On the light-to-medium-bodied palate, it delivers a pure, juice-driven core of primary red fruits, seamlessly balanced by a razor-sharp regional acidity and soft, practically weightless tannins that lead into an incredibly clean, thirst-quenching, and mineral-tinged finish.

Food Pairing: An incredibly versatile and food-friendly red; serves beautifully with a slight chill alongside traditional Venetian cicchetti, light pasta dishes with fresh tomato sauce, wood-fired margherita pizza, or grilled poultry.
