Introduction: The Gorgo Bardolino DOC is a certified organic red from the southeastern shores of Lake Garda, crafted by Azienda Agricola Gorgo — a family estate founded in 1975 and now managed by Roberta Bricolo. Carefree and lively, it is the convivial soul of the Veneto table.
Terroir: Situated on glacial morainic hills near Lake Garda, the vineyards benefit from calcium-rich, well-draining soils and a temperate Mediterranean microclimate moderated by the lake. The result is wines of bright acidity, light structure, and clean mineral character.
Appearance: Bright, translucent ruby red with cherry highlights, light viscosity, and excellent clarity.
Nose: Fragrant and fresh — red cherries, strawberries, pink pepper, and a whisper of Mediterranean scrub. Light floral lift with subtle herbal undertones.
Palate: Light-bodied and harmonious with lively acidity and soft, well-integrated tannins. Flavors of sour cherry, blackcurrant, and a hint of black pepper. Silky and juicy with a velvety mouthfeel.
Finish: Medium length, persistently fruity, with a clean, spiced echo of red fruit and a refreshing herbal note.
Food Pairings:
🥩 Meat: Grilled chicken, roasted quail, prosciutto, or bresaola. Also excellent with white meats and light ragù.
🥦 Vegetarian: Pasta al pomodoro, mushroom risotto, roasted red peppers, or a Margherita pizza.
🧀 Charcuterie Board: Fresh cow's milk cheeses, cured meats, olives, and dried figs.
Overall Impression: A fresh, organically farmed Bardolino that delivers bright red fruit, gentle spice, and easy drinkability. Best served slightly chilled. Drink now through 2026.
