Bardolino Superiore DOCG is a red wine produced on Verona's side of Lake Garda. In a certain sense we can consider it a relative of Valpolicella DOC, produced further to the east, because it is based on the same grapes: Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Molinara. The different territorial context - however - make it a more versatile wine, having gathered admirers both in the region and abroad. However, we do not confuse it with the equally well-known Bardolino DOC (from which it derives), which is characterized by easier and fresher typologies of wine, such as Bardolino Chiaretto DOC or Bardolino Spumante DOC.

The protocol always requires a minimum aging of 1 year and allows the use of the mention “Classico” if the used grapes come from the historical area of ​​the appellation, around the town of Bardolino.

The production area corresponds to the Garda morainic amphitheater created during the era of the glaciations. It is a substantially gravelly and very deep soil that today has the shape of gentle hills that branch from the shores of the lake to the plain for several kilometers. The climate is heavily influenced by the presence of the lake basin and the protection of the Baldo mountain on the northern side. This favorable combination therefore allows you to have mild winters and hot but not very hot summers, an almost Mediterranean climate.
