Bellavista

Alma Gran Cuvée brut - a Franciacorta in the classic Bellavista style, modern yet very elegant and complex. Aromatic bouquet, fine perlage, wonderfully integrated fruit on the palate with a delicate mellowness, plus well-balanced acidity, harmoniously long and deep. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright green-yellow with golden reflections and persistent perlage. Finely characterised nose of apple and citrus fruit, also reminiscent of candle wax, with a subtle hint of marzipan on the final. Crisp on the palate, with airy perlage and a clear fruit centre, stretches across the palate with light pressure and shows fine wood spice, balanced in the final." Falstaff

"An aromatic bouquet of floral, green melon and sweet spice aromas introduces the NV Brut Franciacorta Alma Grande Cuvée. This is seamlessly silken and round with brilliant acidity and crisp orchard fruits complicated by a tinge of ground ginger toward the close. A saline sensation lingers along with hints of lime as this finishes with an intense, crunchy character. Very nice." Vinous

"Aromas of acacia honey, white pepper, green apples and lemon pulp with fresh pastry. Strong acidity with a lean body, but a fine, creamy mousse. Good finish." James Suckling

Radiant rosé with golden reflections. Fine, refined perlage with a dynamic foam. Its generous aromas are characterised by fragrant nuances of white Mediterranean flowers that harmonise with ripe citrus fruits. This is followed by fresh and intense notes of yellow fruit, nectarine and lychee with generous accents of red berries, pomegranate and pink elderflower. In between, there are delicate notes of white chocolate, cocoa, almonds and marzipan. The flavour corresponds perfectly with the nose and is subtle, silky, seductive and persistent. The fine structure reveals a unique lightness. Long lasting persistence. We are delighted by its crystalline freshness and linearity. SUPERIORE.DE

"Pale onion skin colour with fine perlage. Nose of fresh orange, some tangerine, wet stone, delicate, light blossom on the finish, inviting. Beautiful precision on the palate, very restrained fruit, pure, very dry." Falstaff

Here comes the new archaic form of Franciacorta - hardly any residual sugar, no dosage, but purism in its purest form. Fresh and direct on the nose, yet finely polished and not exuberant. Extremely elegant on the palate with a fine perlage and plenty of agility. For all its vivacity, it is always sensual, almost distinguished and discreetly subtle and of the greatest harmony. A fresh and crisp fine sparkling wine from the best house and one of the most characterful representatives of its kind at the moment. SUPERIORE.DE,

"Bright straw yellow with persistent perlage. Precise nose of grapefruit, lemon, some wild strawberry, sea salt, intense and appealing, with fine notes of fresh cream on the finish. Juicy, precise, clear on the palate, with a beautiful drive and fine perlage, balanced and harmonious." Falstaff

"The Franciacorta Alma Grande Cuvée Non Dosato is remarkably fresh. A whiff of white smoke gives way to hints of dried flowers, crusty brioche and ginger-spiked apples. This opens with a pretty inner sweetness offset by saline mineral tones and tart orchard fruits. It finishes long and full of tension, leaving a salty flourish savory spice nuances." Vinous

Delicately yeasty and opulent tropical fruit flavour. Outstanding personality, elegant, full-bodied and with a great balance between fruity softness and structure. Oenologist Mattia Vezzola and Bellavista also set standards in terms of complexity and depth with their Satèn. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, medium straw yellow colour. Fine aromas of citrus zest and ripe yellow apple on the nose, accompanied by elegant yeast notes and a hint of nuts. Fine foam caresses the palate, while the refreshing acidity and creamy, mineral texture glide gently over the tongue. The finish is characterised by an invigorating freshness that allows the floral accents to linger for a long time. Young and dynamic with plenty of potential for maturity." Falstaff

"Bright and crisp fruit flavours, accompanied by lemon peel, flow from the glass. Light yeasty notes add complexity, while crisp acidity provides freshness. The wine is fruit-driven, with a slight minerality and a hint of yellow flowers." Wine Enthusiast

Pinot Nero and Chardonnay give this exceptional Franciacorta a delicate salmon red colour with an orange touch. Strawberry fruit, a hint of blackcurrant and fine floral nuances on the nose. Freshly structured on the palate, with a lively mousse and a delicate red berry flavour with citrus undertones. A light-footed character with elegance, character and grace right through to the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Bellavista's Pas Operé enchants with an elegant peach aroma and fine nuances of tangerine. Elegant and balanced on the palate with lively acidity and good minerality. An extraordinary Franciacorta of all-embracing complexity. SUPERIORE.DE

Floral, structured and deep - the Riserva Franciacorta Extra Brut Vittorio Moretti, one of the absolute best spumante Italy has to offer. Juicy peaches, apricots, mint and flowers in the opulent bouquet. Very lively and pure on the palate with balanced notes from the oak. A warm, soft wine with great development potential. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright straw yellow with light gold and persistent perlage. On the nose, fragrant and inviting of buttered pastries, honeycomb, candied citrus zest and noble salty, iodine tones, even white truffle, reverberating with cream and delicate bourbon vanilla. Noble and clear on the palate, stretches precisely over the tongue, with a magnificent course, round perlage and salty play, long final." Falstaff

"Chamomile, yellow-pear, citrus-zest and bread-crust aromas shape the nose on this blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Nero. On the elegantly structured, creamy palate, a refined perlage accompanies mature yellow apple, orange rind, walnut and vanilla. Fresh acidity brightens the rich flavors." Wine Enthusiast
