Tasting notes
The Curtefranca Bianco "Convento Ss. Annunciata" Bellavista comes from a still cuvée of 100% Chardonnay, born on Monte Orfano from an ancient vineyard of just over 5 hectares, divided into two parts by a fig tree. The grapes from the two parts of the ancient vineyard are vinified separately, safeguarding the micro-differences, in white oak barrels and then blended in a single and prestigious cuvée. After an evolution of 12 months in the fermentation barrel, the wine rests in the bottle for at least 12 months. Curtefranca Bianco "Convento Ss. Annunciata" is a full-bodied, soft and buttery wine of great elegance, vinified and aged in white oak barrels. It has aromas of flowers, vanilla, and exotic fruit and an intense and enveloping. The taste is sapid and full-bodied, well defined, with a long and mineral persistence at the end.

About this wine
Bellavista's Convento Santissima Annuniata Bianco Curtefranca is a distinguished white wine from Lombardy's prestigious Franciacorta DOCG region. Crafted from Chardonnay, this wine exemplifies the producer's commitment to quality winemaking in one of Northern Italy's most celebrated terroirs. The cool continental climate and glacial soils of Franciacorta impart mineral complexity and elegance to the fruit.
This full-bodied white displays characteristic notes of tropical and dried fruits complemented by subtle vanilla and buttery undertones, reflecting careful winemaking techniques. At 13.5% ABV, it strikes an excellent balance between richness and freshness. The wine's minerality and aromatic profile make it exceptionally versatile at the table.
Pair this Chardonnay with shellfish, crab, and lobster for classic harmony, or enjoy it alongside fresh herb-driven dishes and aromatic preparations. Goat cheese and green vegetables also pair beautifully. An ideal selection for refined dining aboard yachts, in mountain chalets, or at private estates seeking an elegant Italian white of genuine provenance and quality.
