About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The Tenuta Sorsei vineyard lies at Cavaion in the historic Bardolino Classico area, among the glacial moraine hills near the southeastern shore of Lake Garda. Its light, gravelly soils, 140-metre elevation and east/west exposure are moderated by the lake’s relatively mild, less humid microclimate. The vines are trained on a vertical trellis, and the vineyard has held BIOS organic certification since 1999.
Vinification
A natural, organically farmed and environmentally conscious rosé refermented in bottle. It is unfiltered, retains a light sediment and is made without added preservatives.
Tasting profile
Pale pink. Delicate aromas of rose and wild strawberry lead to a savoury, restrained palate recalling rose and unripe strawberry.
Serving and pairing
Serve chilled at 8–10 °C. Suited to light dishes and to service as an aperitif.
Label / history
In local dialect, Rivo means “I arrive.” The name belongs to a group of wines whose dialect expressions evoke Tenuta Sorsei’s roots and summer outings overlooking Lake Garda.
