Franciacorta Extra Brut 'Vittorio Moretti' Bellavista 2013

The Franciacorta Extra Brut "Vittorio Moretti" Bellavista is the result of years of study, experience and experimentation by the famous maison, the extraordinary culmination of a journey that began in 1977, when the small building contractor Vittorio Moretti decided to extend his home in Erbusco by adding a wine cellar. Today we are faced with one of the largest, most important and prestigious wine producers in Italy, which has reached incredible heights of quality with this label.

The Bellavista "Vittorio Moretti" is an elegant, powerful and important Franciacorta of the highest level, a perfect synthesis between the creaminess of the fruit, a rich symphony of aromas and the spicy contribution of the wood, all crowned by a perlage of the finest and most paradigmatic workmanship. It is produced only in the best vintages from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, vinified in steel and oak barrels. After re-fermentation in the bottle using the Metodo Classico, it evolves on the lees in the bottle for over 7 years in the house cellars. At the end of this long period of maturation, the sparkling wine reaches a level of richness, complexity and balance that makes it capable of competing with the greatest international stars.

Franciacorta "Vittorio Moretti" Extra Brut is an intense expression of great class, designed to excite enthusiasts and amaze the most demanding tasters. It enchants the eye with its soft, fine perlage that embellishes and illuminates a brilliant golden guise. The bouquet is broad, articulate and complex. It includes notes of ripe white fruit, sweet spices, candied citrus fruits, honey and toasted nuts such as almonds and hazelnuts. On the palate it is intense, complex, soft, broad and creamy, with a dynamic progression and energetic verticality. It is the highlight of a splendid production, the result of the producer's love for the highest potential of the territory. A terroir that he has always known how to exploit and care for to the fullest, capable of bestowing unique and unmissable bubbles.
