SIP INTO SUMMER: Our Wine of the Week is a Lake Garda Legend!

If the forecast is hitting 80°F, your glass should be hitting back with something crisp, cold, and world-class. This week at Kramer’s Market, we are heading to the sun-drenched shores of Lombardy, Italy, to bring you a true "Porch Wine Champion."

Introducing: Podere Selva Capuzza Chiaretto

This isn’t just any rosé; it’s a Chiaretto (pronounced kee-ah-ret-toh). Known as the "little light one," this wine has a storied history on the banks of Lake Garda. By pressing the grapes quickly, winemakers keep the tannins low and the "crushability" high; resulting in a wine that is as elegant as it is refreshing.

Why It’s a Heavy Hitter

While many rosés are made as an afterthought, the Selva Capuzza is crafted with serious intent.

The Pedigree: It boasts a consistent 90 point average from Wine Enthusiast. That is a massive score for a rosé, signaling a level of structure you won't find in your average grocery store find.
The Blend: Forget the standard Grenache. This Italian beauty uses a unique blend of local stars: Groppello, Barbera, Sangiovese, and Marzemino.
The Vibe: Expect a stunning pale peach hue in the glass. On the nose, you’ll find wild strawberries and nectarines, finishing with a zesty, savory tang and a hint of salinity that begs for another sip.

Perfect Pairings

The beauty of this Chiaretto is its versatility. It has enough backbone to stand up to food but is delicate enough to enjoy solo.

The Classic: A wood-fired Margherita pizza.
The Refresh: Light pasta dishes with lemon and herbs.
The Best Way: Chilled on the patio as the ultimate aperitif.
