Estate
This estate makes Italy's finest sparkling wines from the Franciacorta zone in a natural amphitheatre. The glacial soil is full of stones, and provides the ideal environment for the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes used in the production of their Franciacorta. Bellavista, meaning 'beautiful view' in Italian, was founded by Vittorio Moretti in the early 1970s, with the first vintage produced in 1979. In 1981, he met a young winemaker, Mattia Vezzola and this partnership transformed Bellavista into Italy's leading producer of quality sparkling wine.
Tasting notes
Alma Assemblage 1 is a new cuvée, created to express Bellavista’s most authentic vision of Franciacorta. It marks a new chapter, blending tradition and innovation through a meticulous selection of vineyards and vintages. Bright and refined, it reveals floral and citrus notes on the nose, with a creamy texture and a fresh, mineral finish. A vibrant, harmonious wine that captures the soul of its land.
