Bellavista
Bellavista is the reference Franciacorta for those who love class and elegance. Bellavista is one of the most prestigious names in Franciacorta. It represents not only an absolute level of excellence, but also a piece of history of this famous Denomination dedicated to the production of the Classic Method. The Bellavista company was founded in 1977 thanks to Vittorio Moretti who decides to recover some family vineyards, bringing the company over time to an extension of more than 200 hectares of vineyards. The vineyards are cultivated on the reliefs of the gentle hills created by the moraine of an ancient alpine glacier. The mild climate, the draining soils rich in pebbles, have proved to be a perfect habitat for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to be made sparkling. Great attention in the vineyard, strictly manual harvests and delicate vinification with a soft pressing of the grapes, guarantee musts of excellent quality. With vines that embrace Lake Iseo up to lap the Alps, Bellavista is the company that pays particular attention to production methods to create cuvées recognizable in the taste and sensitivity of its creators. With about ninety selections, Bellavista pursues maximum naturalness, respecting the vineyard and enhancing the peculiarities of Franciacorta , distinguishing itself for qualitative consistency and great recognition. The continuous search for excellence in the combination of Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio is further refined by Bellavista with the careful care of plots distant from each other and each with its own name. This is the consistency renewed by a qualitative challenge for the many Classic Method proposals such as the recognizable bottle of Franciacorta Brut DOCG Grande Cuvée Alma Bellavista with 40 months aging on the lees or the Bellavista Alma Non Dosato which uses nine reserve wines in the cuvée.
The variety of Franciacorta Bellavista
The variety of Franciacorta Bellavista depends on countless factors involved in the creation of the cuvées. Franciacorta Bellavista is initially created with Pinot Nero, Pinot Bianco and Chardonnay grapes that come from one hundred and seven vineyards located near Lake Iseo. The manual harvesting and selection of the grapes is one of the most important moments in the process of creating Franciacorta Bellavista. As a Classic Method, the base wine obtained for the Franciacorta Bellavista is assembled in cuvées destined to referment in the bottle for a few months. The selection of wines, the aging of some of these in oak and the possibility of drawing on reserve wines are factors capable of guaranteeing complexity to Franciacorta Bellavista before the second fermentation begins. The Franciacorta Bellavista certainly stand out the Franciacorta Brut Satèn DOCG 2016 Bellavista with aging for at least 5 years in the cellar and the Millesimato Bellavista Teatro alla Scala Brut, a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Nero from old vines with more than a quarter of the wines aged in oak.
Is Bellavista a Prosecco?
Bellavista is produced in Franciacorta while Prosecco is produced in the provinces of Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia . As a Classic Method, the Bellavista ferments a second time in the bottle while the Prosecco undergoes the second fermentation in the autoclave. Furthermore, Bellavista cannot be a Prosecco because it is created with grapes other than Glera such as Chardonnay, Pinot Nero and Pinot Bianco.
What is Bellavista Rosé made from?
Bellavista Rosé is made from 55% Chardonnay and 45% Pinot Nero grapes. The rosé color of Bellavista Rosé is mainly due to the pigments present on the skins of Pinot Noir while the particularity of this sparkling wine consists in the creation of a blend of more than 30 different selections and the refinement of some of these base wines in oak.
What does the Bellavista Brut match with?
There are many labels of Bellavista Brut, that is of Classic Method sparkling wine vinified to have a final sugar residue between 0 and 12 g / l. It is ideal to accompany appetizers and seafood first courses but it lends itself very well as a refined or informal aperitif wine.
