Bellavista Vintage Rosé Brut Franciacorta DOCG 1,5 l Magnum 2014 - Bellavista

The Bellavista Vendemmia Rosé Brut Franciacorta DOCG from Bellavista shines in the glass with a white foam wreath and very fine, dense and persistent perlage. The elegant pink nuances fascinate the observer, when the wine is more mature it takes on aristocratic old pink tones. The bouquet invites to dream with delicate notes of white peach, followed by intense and appealing aromas of wild strawberries, citrus fruits, apple Golden Delicious, rose hip and a hint of freshly toasted bread. On the palate, this superb Franciacorta Rosé sparkling wine presents itself pleasantly dry, of appealing freshness, very harmonious structure and enchantingly delicate texture, with elegant notes of blackcurrant, clearly recognizable small wild berries and sweet almond in the long lasting finish.

Vinification of Bellavista Vendemmia Rosé Brut Franciacorta from Bellavista

For this exclusive Rosé Franciacorta, 62% Chardonnay and 38% Pinot Noir are vinified together. The Pinot Noirt from a single vineyard plays a decisive role and gives this sparkling wine its depth, colour and stability, but also its delicate and constant flavours. The grapes are only harvested when they are perfectly ripe and the sparkling wine is vinified using a method that is already considered rare. For this cuvée, more than 30 selected vintage base wines, some of them matured in small white oak barrels, are married with the greatest care and according to the best Bellavista tradition. The Bellavista Vendemmia Rosé matures in the cellars of the winery for at least 5 years from the vintage year.
As any rarity, the Rosé is produced in very limited quantities.
