Aldo Adami

On Monte Valbusa, behind Sommacampagna, the Aldo Adami winery cultivates the hilly hinterland that slopes towards Lake Garda, a borderland between the Bardolino and Custoza areas. The only denomination it bottles is Bardolino Superiore DOCG, the qualitative pinnacle of the type, built on the Veronese trio of Corvina, Corvinone, and Rondinella. The regulations mandate at least twelve months of aging and a minimum alcohol content of twelve percent, thresholds that the company achieves through meticulous vineyard care rather than cellar manipulations. It is a family farm, now in its third generation—Aldo with his children Deborah and Mirco—that has worked exclusively with local varieties for over thirty years, without succumbing to the temptation to expand its repertoire. The resulting Bardolino Superiore focuses on finesse and thoughtful drinkability, far from reds of mere power. The winery welcomes visitors: one can taste directly on site or purchase at the company's sales point, an opportunity to understand firsthand how a single, thoroughly worked denomination is enough to define a style.
