The Sommacampagna subzone in the southeast part of Bardolino is the warmest and wettest of the three. This wine has a nose of stewed red fruits, particularly strawberry. Flavours of baked red fruits are joined by a touch of peppery spice, but the bright acidity is more prominent than it should be due to the fading palate. This is the oldest wine here and it shows. Drink soon
