The Burgundy glass is perfect for a light and fruity red wine.
The glass is broader than other red wine glasses.
The larger bowl has the function of accumulating the aromas of delicate red wines. It also allows a proper swirling, channeling the aromas upwards.
In addition, the style of the glass directs the wine to the tip of your tongue
for a better reception of the tastes.
The blend of grapes used to produce Bardolino includes Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara.
These grapes are also used to produce Valpolicella, but the two wines are quite different.
Bardolino contains less Corvina and more Rondinella. Other blending grapes (max 15%) can be Rossignola, Barbera, Sangiovese, and Garganega.
Bardolino Superiore wines got the DOC status in 1968 and DOCG in 2001.
DOCG rules are: minimum alcohol level 12% and 1 year aging.
Veneto is famous for its capital Venezia, and the wines Prosecco, Soave, and Amarone.
