Bellavista’s Franciacorta Brut Alma Assemblage 1 is the result of a skilful blend of over 30 different vintage selections and reserves from multiple vintages, fermented and matured in small oak barrels. Ageing on the lees in the bottle for at least 40 months gives this wine its complexity, elegance and extremely fine perlage.
On the nose, it presents a rich and enveloping bouquet, where aromas of white flowers, acacia honey and citrus stand out, enriched by notes of baked goods, toasted hazelnuts and vanilla. On the palate, it is creamy and enveloping, with a very fine effervescence and a vibrant freshness that leads to a long, savoury and harmonious finish.
Its structure and elegance make it an ideal companion for a wide variety of dishes. It is perfect as an aperitif, but also pairs magnificently with delicate pasta dishes, seafood risottos, white meats and fresh or medium-aged cheeses.
To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 8–10°C.
