About the wine
This Chiaretto di Bardolino is as refreshing an Italian rosé as you'll find anywhere at this price
-
Marica’s cracking Chiaretto showcases the incredible potential of the Bardolino region, where the glacial climate produces elegant, refreshing wines with superb minerality and acidity.
-
Chiaretto - meaning ‘pale’ - is the special name used for rosé produced on the shores of Lake Garda, where Marica and her family are from. It’s made using the same top-notch grapes as their reds, all from their own vineyards.
-
It’s a light and delicate rosé with an almost Provence-style pale pink colour, but with more fruit and more fun. Gorgeous aromas of redcurrant and rose petal follow through to deliver a refreshing mouthfeel on the palate. A real spring and summer sipper.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Marica Bonomo
-
We knew Marica would be a perfect fit for Naked when she joined us back in 2022, and that Angels would love her wines. But to go from a standing start to Winemaker of the Year in just two years is nothing short of extraordinary.
-
Marica is exactly the kind of hard-working, humble but uber-talented winemaker Naked was set up to support. A third generation winemaker, her family have been crafting top-quality Italian wines for 66 years, up in the hills near Lake Garda in the Veneto region. They don’t use pesticides or herbicides, and can paper the walls of their recently renovated, solar-powered winery with so many sustainability credentials and certificates. And by producing only wines that come from their own vineyards, Marica knows the identity and soul of every single grape that goes into them.
-
In recent years, Marica’s wines have started to get noticed in high places, including being named in the ‘Top 100 Wines’ in the world by Wine Spectator. And now she’s topped it all by being named your 2023 Winemaker of the Year. It couldn't have happened to a nicer lady.
