The Rosato Veneto of Angolo di Paradiso is the estate's rosé expression — fine and fresh, produced from the same fully organic Val Squaranto vineyards whose basalt, Lessinia white rock, and flint soils give all the estate's wines their characteristic mineral intensity. It occupies a specific and well-defined role in the portfolio: the wine for the lighter moment, for the table set with a sense of ease and pleasure rather than ceremony, for the occasion that calls for freshness and colour rather than structure and weight.
Produced from the classic Valpolicella varieties in the rosé style — a short maceration that extracts the colour and the most delicate aromatic compounds from the skins without the full tannin development of red wine production — the Rosato Veneto carries the particular character of the Val Squaranto terroir in its lightest and most immediately accessible form. The flint soils that have become the symbol of the estate — representing continuity, the link between man and territory renewed over millennia — contribute a mineral dimension even to this most delicate of the estate's wines.
The estate's commitment to fully organic farming extends to all its wines without exception, and the Rosato Veneto is no different: the same organic principles that govern the production of the Amarone and the Ripasso apply with equal rigour to the rosé, ensuring that the wine's freshness and mineral character reflect the terroir rather than the manipulations that conventional farming would permit.
Fine and fresh — the estate's characterisation of the Rosato Veneto — captures precisely what makes this wine valuable and enjoyable: a rosé of genuine quality from a terroir of genuine distinction, produced with the same care that the estate's most ambitious wines receive.
