Italy's largest lake, Lake Garda, has a history of making rosé-like wines for hundreds of years. Here on the lake, they don't refer to these wines as rosato or rosé, but they have their own name for it, Chiaretto, meaning "the little pale one". The term Chiaretto dates back to the 1800s. The small family of estate of Le Morette has 3 generations of experience crafting the finest rosé style wines in the Classic area of Bardolino, very close to the eastern shore of the lake.
