Tasting Note

This wine personifies the indomitable spirit of Vittorio Moretti. Fragrant, rich in floral notes of elderberry and jasmine combined with an intriguing hint of flint and incense together with Mediterranean wild herbs and tropical fruits. An explosion of flavour envelops the palate courtesy of the finesse of the bubbles. Savoury, mineral and citrus flavours lead to a dynamic and lingering, pristine finish.

Product Notes

Bellavista Vittorio Moretti Franciacorta Extra Brut Vintage is a stunning Italian wine crafted in Lombardy. This remarkable wine is a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Nero, reflecting a meticulous selection of the region's finest fruits. It entices with an exquisite nose of orchard fruits and honeyed brioche, leading to a complex palate, layered with refined minerality, crisp acidity and elegant bubbles. Aged in oak barrels and on lees for seven years, the result is an elegant, full-bodied wine with a lingering finish. It is the true expression of Bellavista's rich winemaking heritage.
