Organic Chiaretto in Lazise: the rose that tells the story of Lake Garda
Organic Chiaretto in Lazise is one of the wines that best represent our territory. Le Tende is a wine estate on the Veronese shore of Lake Garda, where this rose is born from grapes grown according to the principles of organic viticulture. Chiaretto is a wine with a bright pink colour, fresh and fragrant, perfect to accompany light cuisine and moments of conviviality. Making an organic Chiaretto in Lazise means giving up herbicides and synthetic fertilisers and relying on the health of the soil, the mild Garda climate and daily care of the vineyard. Our family tends every row with the same attention as always, because a good organic Chiaretto starts from healthy, well-ripened grapes. So every bottle tells the story of the morainic hills of Lazise and of a way of tending the vineyard that respects the environment and those who will enjoy the wine at the table.
Organic Chiaretto in Lazise: grapes and method of a respectful viticulture
Our organic Chiaretto in Lazise is made from red grapes of the Bardolino area, vinified as a rose with a short maceration of the skins. This delicate step is what gives Chiaretto its soft colour and its fresh, fruity profile. Growing organically means working the vineyard with natural methods: living soil, grass between the rows, biodiversity as an ally and no synthetic products. An organic Chiaretto therefore requires more time and more manual work, but it gives a more authentic wine, closely tied to its land. In the cellar, vinification is careful and at low temperatures, to preserve the delicate aromas of this rose. The result is an organic Chiaretto in Lazise that is pleasant and versatile, able to express precisely the character of the Garda hills in every glass.
Organic Chiaretto in Lazise: the hand harvest that makes the difference
The journey of our organic Chiaretto begins in the vineyard, with a harvest carried out entirely by hand. Picking the bunches one by one allows us to choose only perfectly healthy grapes and to respect the ideal moment of ripeness, essential for a fresh, elegant rose. The manual harvest is slower and more demanding, but it is a choice consistent with our idea of organic Chiaretto in Lazise: a wine cared for in every detail, from the row to the bottle. The grapes reach the cellar intact and are handled gently, because Chiaretto lives on freshness and aromas. For us at Le Tende every bottle of organic Chiaretto is the result of a full year of work, made of patience, experience and deep respect for the rhythms of nature on Lake Garda.
