2017 | Bellavista | Saten

As soon as it is poured into the glass, Bellavista's Saten denotes an abundant, creamy foam and a perlage of rare finesse. On first sniff, it opens on floral notes of peach and elderflower, not sparing hints of dried fruit, such as hazelnut.

Producer Information

Bellavista is a wine producer located in the heart of the Franciacorta wine region, where it produces a range of well-received vintage and non-vintage sparkling wines from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The company was founded by Vittorio Moretti in the early 1970s. The estate spans 190 hectares (470 acres) of vineyard land spread across 10 communes in the Franciacorta DOCG zone. Varieties planted include Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Bianco, with vines averaging more than 20 years old. Bellavista's vineyards have a wide range of different soil types and are divided into 147 small parcels based on geographical differences and grape variety. These plots remain separate throughout the harvest and vinification process – the subsequent base wines are blended to achieve Bellavista's house style. Bellavista produces all of its sparkling wines by the traditional method (Franciacorta is often favorably compared to Champagne). To produce its non-vintage cuvées, the estate blends current vintage wines with a selection from at least 20 different reserve wines.
