Descrizione

The Chiaretto Bardolino DOC from Zeni's Fef Collection is a rosé with a lively, measured character, refined in amphora to highlight fruit freshness without overloading the structure. It shows a pale pink color and an aromatic profile recalling red berries, fresh flowers and subtle mineral hints; on the palate it is slender, balanced, with pleasant sapidity that supports a clean, inviting finish. Amphora aging gives a delicate texture and a more direct oxygen interaction, enhancing drinkability without distorting the Chiaretto's identity.

It pairs well with light fish dishes, shellfish preparations, summer salads and flavorful antipasti; it also works with mildly seasoned white meats and fresh cheeses. Recommended serving temperature around 10–12 °C, in glasses that emphasize aromatic freshness. Intended for early consumption, its structure and clear palate make it suitable for convivial moments and dishes that require an acidic, fresh component.

Winery history

The winery dates back to 1870. The family story begins with Bartolomeo Zeni; over time the family (notably Gaetano, known as 'Nino') shifted production toward separate vinification of grapes to highlight each origin.

Production philosophy

Philosophy: to valorize terroir and native varieties, vinify grapes from different zones separately, with research and respect for the vineyard. The winery emphasizes grape quality and environmentally respectful, innovative cellar practices.

Terroir and vineyards
