Case Deal: 2025 Castellano Chiaretto Bardolino Rosato

Few wines are as refreshing on a warm summer day as a well-made rosé. Served chilled, rosé offers bright fruit flavors, crisp acidity, and a lighter profile that makes it perfect for everything from afternoons on the patio to backyard gatherings and summer meals. One of Italy's most distinctive examples is Chiaretto di Bardolino, a rosé from the shores of Lake Garda that combines vibrant notes of strawberry, raspberry, citrus, and fresh herbs with remarkable freshness. If you're looking for the ideal summer sipper, a case of Castellano Chiaretto di Bardolino is the perfect way to keep a taste of northern Italy on hand all season long. "Lovely day-bright pale-pink-peach color. On the nose, citrus pith, tangerine, guava, and nectarine. The palate is lively and very fresh, with a pleasant, soft texture and no sharp acid edges, with just-ripe strawberry coming through at the end. Smooth throughout and at just 12% ABV, it's dangerously easy to make disappear. I say you'd better chill 2 bottles ahead of time: this pretty rosé will make plenty of friends during the hot summer months. Amazing quality to price ratio here." -Shawn Paul, Foxcroft's Wine Operations Director Blend: Corvina, Rondinella, Molinara Foxcroft Online Price: $99 per case (12 bottles)* *This wine is arriving soon; we'll send you an email when it's ready for pickup
