    In the 1820s, wine merchants knew three Bardolino crus that existed in Switzerland's grand hotels alongside Burgundy and Beaujolais. In 1968, they were lost in the DOC regulations. They have been back since 2021 – and Montebaldo, the northernmost and highest subzone on the foothills of Monte Baldo, is perhaps the most exciting. Guerrieri Rizzardi's response to this rediscovery: 95 per cent Corvina – the highest percentage the winery has ever bottled –complemented by a touch of Rondinella, vinified completely without wood. This is not a concession to light summer enjoyment. It is a statement about transparency: the grape speaks exclusively here, and the moraine soil of Cavaion gives it a resonance chamber.

    Wild strawberry, sour cherry, rose blossom, a hint of clove – with a silky tannin structure that has unusual depth for Bardolino. The first 2021 vintage was immediately awarded the Golden Crown by Vinibuoni d'Italia. The 2023 shows that this was not a debut success, but the beginning of a new narrative. SUPERIORE.DE

    "The 2023 Montebaldo Bardolino Delara is wildly fresh, mixing blackberries with sage and violet florals. It is cool-toned and perfumed throughout, blending wild blueberries with lavender and crisp mineral tones. This tapers off crunchy and mouth-watering as a bump of residual acidity maintains fantastic balance through the long finale. Beautifully done. I could easily mistake this for Cru Beaujolais."
