Tasting notes

Perlage

Perlage

Lively, and persistent, with long and homogeneous chains that persist in the tasting phase.

Profumo

Perfume

Opens with a broad and complex floral bouquet that recalls Mediterranean herbs and tropical fruit, and is enriched with hints of white pepper and mineral notes of flint. Hints of tea leaf and ginger intertwine with delicate nuances of dried fruit.

Colore

Color

Brilliant citrine quartz, with bright reflections.

Gusto

Taste

The sip is vibrant, with a notable tasting tension. Long and persistent, it is characterized by an extraordinary minerality that perfectly balances the richness of the drink. Intense and deep finish, which gives freshness.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1977
  • Oenologist: Francesca Moretti
  • Bottles produced: 1.600.000
  • Hectares: 207
A deep love has always bound Vittorio Moretti to the land. The never-quenched memory of carefree childhood summers, spent in his maternal grandparents' countryside, resurfaced with impetus many years later, when he decided to "do agriculture" and discover himself as a winegrower. His determination let his intuition take shape. A thought and an action that feed off each other, turning into an unstoppable crescendo. Thus Bellavista was born, in the heart of Franciacorta.

In the beginning it was just a few hectares, a family house and adjacent wine cellar, with the desire to make good wine to share with friends. But the power of the dream is overwhelming, fuelled by Vittorio Moretti's innate inclination to achieve perfection in all his work. Trips to France are decisive, there one breathes a new air, learns from the great masters, discovers places and people whose existence revolves around wine.
