About this sparkling wine
Bellavista is a renowned wine producer located in the heart of Franciacorta, Italy. The winery has a rich history dating back to the 1970s when founder Vittorio Moretti began his journey to create world-class sparkling wines. Today, Bellavista is known for its exceptional Pas Opere Millesimato, a Franciacorta DOCG wine that is highly sought after by wine enthusiasts around the world.
The Pas Opere Millesimato is made using the traditional method of sparkling wine production, which involves a secondary fermentation in the bottle. The wine is a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, which are carefully selected from the best vineyards in the region. The grapes are hand-harvested and then gently pressed to extract the juice, which is then fermented in stainless steel tanks. After the first fermentation, the wine is bottled with a small amount of yeast and sugar, which triggers the secondary fermentation. The wine is then aged on its lees for at least 36 months, which gives it its unique flavour and complexity.
The Pas Opere Millesimato has a pale straw colour with a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it has intense aromas of citrus, white flowers and brioche, which are complemented by hints of honey and hazelnut. On the palate, the wine is dry, elegant and well-balanced, with a creamy texture and a long, refreshing finish. It is a perfect accompaniment to seafood, white meats and creamy cheeses.
Bellavista is committed to sustainable viticulture and uses only organic and biodynamic practices in its vineyards. The winery also has a state-of-the-art cellar, which is equipped with the latest technology to ensure the highest quality of wine production. Bellavista's Pas Opere Millesimato is a testament to the winery's dedication to excellence and its passion for creating exceptional sparkling wines.
