The Franciacorta Brut Vintage from Bellavista is a sparkling wine made using the Classic Method with impeccable balance and great elegance, aged on the lees in the bottle for 36 months. Its soft, fresh, and enveloping tones are animated by hints of honey, citrus, and white flowers. A prestigious label further enhanced by the Magnum format

The Franciacorta Magnum Brut Millesimato is the result of years of experimentation in the vineyard and the expertise of owner Vittorio Moretti and winemaker Mattia Vezzola. In fact, the Bellavista winery, among the most authoritative names in Italian sparkling wine, can be considered a true maison of Franciacorta, one of the most vocated areas for the production of truly exciting sparkling wines. Indeed, this Millesimato Brut is a concrete example, a true symbol of the winery that fully embodies all its characteristics: impeccable, measured and balanced, a synthesis of elegance and finesse. We are in the heart of Lombardy, in that corner of land that extends from the Po Valley to touch the shores of Lake Iseo. Here Bellavista took root decades ago by purchasing more than 200 hectares and producing excellences that would become a reference point in the Italian sparkling wine world in just a few years.

The Millesimato Franciacorta is made from Chardonnay and Pinot Nero grapes of the same vintage grown on high hills with exposure to South/South-East from vines older than 25 years. Part of the must ferments in small white oak barrels for about 7 months, while the rest in steel. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle according to the Metodo Classico and the aging on the lees lasts 36 months, the time necessary for the yeasts to give back everything they have "eaten". This is followed by disgorgement and closure with the classic cork and metal cage.

The Magnum Bellavista Franciacorta Millesimato has a crystalline straw-yellow mantle with golden reflections, enhanced by a persistent, aristocratic and intriguing perlage. The range of aromas is seductive and fresh: hints of bread crust, green apple, white flowers and honey parade in succession among mineral and citrus memories. On the palate, it is elegant, creamy and unique, made possible by the synergy between freshness, softness, minerality and effervescence. Perfect for any festive occasion, ideal to pair with the entire meal, intriguing and pleasant, it will surely give great emotions. We are sure it will

capture you from the very first sip, telling you the story of these lands and an extraordinary reality called Bellavista.
