Product Notes

Bellavista Franciacorta Rosé Brut Vintage wine is an exceptional Italian sparkler that brilliantly encapsulates the excellence of Lombardy's wine crafting expertise. Its vivid, shimmering salmon-pink hue is enchanting, foretelling the exuberant feast of red berries, citrus zest, and gentle spice notes on the palate. Maturation over a considerable period in its lees lends a noteworthy complexity and depth, harmonising beautifully with a persistent, lively fizz. The body of this meticulously crafted wine is structured, yet elegant, bearing a refreshing acidity that balances out its richness with utter finesse. Its finish is remarkable, resonating a memorable crisp, mineral-infused charm.

Tasting Notes

As always, the choice of the base wines is decisive, and that explains why the final assembly is made choosing from 30 vintage selections, some of which have matured in small white oak casks. Cellaring lasts 4 years or more after the harvest. The juvenile light pink hues can evolve into precious dusty colors with bottle-ageing, and are surrounded by a shining white foam and a thick, pesistent pérlage. White peach aromas start the aromatic dance, followed and amplified by hints of wild strawberries, wildflowers and toasted bread. The mouthfeel is fleshy, dry, fresh but not sharp, punctuated by harmonious and seductive vibrations reminiscent of black currant and sweet almonds
