Tacchetto Bardolino Classico DOC 2007
- A Single Vineyard wine which is only produced by Guerrieri Rizzardi. The grapes come from the Tacchetto vineyard in the village of Cavaion below Monte Baldo. The vineyard has its own unique terrain and conditions with small stones and calcareous rock, a breezy, airy location and is well known for the quality of its fruit. This Single Vineyard wine is rich in perfume of black cherry and its characteristic spicy bouquet. We recommend our Tacchetto served slightly chilled (15-17°C or 59-63°F) with seafood, pasta or roasted white meats.
