Tacchetto is a single-vineyard Bardolino Chiaretto from the estate's oldest Corvina vineyard. Chiaretto (meaning 'light' or 'pale') is the rosato of Garda, made by short skin contact on Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara. Pale salmon-pink with delicate berry and rose aromatics.

Dindarello is Maculan's late-harvest Moscato, a lighter and more delicate counterpart to the intense Torcolato and Acininobili. From small Moscato (Muscat blanc a petits grains) grapes left on the vine to develop extra ripeness, it captures the variety's natural floral sweetness without botrytis intervention.

I Capitelli is Anselmi's late-harvest sweet Garganega, made from overripe and botrytised bunches from the Capitel Croce and Capitel Foscarino hills; rich, honeyed and apricot-dominated but lifted by the grape's natural acidity that keeps it from cloying.
