Valtènesi Riviera del Garda Classico DOC Chiaretto Rosagreen 2024 Bio

Rosagreen was first produced in 2014 by selecting only Groppello grapes from a specific vineyard on the Pasini San Giovanni estate on the western shore of Lake Garda. The wine stands out for its intensity of taste and crisp-saline tension, which makes it so pleasant and mouth-watering, despite its characteristic lightness.

In the practice of Valtènesi, rosé wines, called “chiaretti”, are always obtained from a blend of 4 grapes: Groppello, Sangiovese, Barbera and Marzemino. The Pasini family therefore made an original move by deciding to enhance the most typical and territorial vine variety of the area. Valtènesi Chiaretto Rosagreen is therefore a rosé wine that is part of the Garda Chiaretto tradition, but produced with innovative choices, aimed at capturing the essence of the typical Groppello grape.

The grapes are harvested slightly in advance to have a good supply of acidity. They are crushed and the must remains in contact with the skins for 22 hours to extract the color. After that alcoholic fermentation proceeds without the skins in stainless steel vats at low temperature as if it were a white wine.
