"This cuvée embodies the quintessence of Franciacorta and the ideal harmony behind
every Bellavista Franciacorta Method wine. It is made from mostly chardonnay
grapes, followed by pinot nero and a small proportion of pinot bianco. At the winery,
it is assembled by capable hands from many vintage selections and a few reserve
wines from previous harvests, an essential treasure that perpetuates the winery’s
style through time. Also important are the fermentation and elevage of part of these
wines in small white oak barrels, which impart depth and complexity. The wine is a
straw yellow color with greenish highlights and a fine, continuous bead. Ample and
enveloping, the aromas range from ripe fruit to fresh flowers, all the way to vanilla and
pastry. In the mouth, it is mineral and sensorily complete, fresh and vibrant, and very
consistent from an aromatic perspective. Long, harmonious finish."
