Bellavista Grande Cuvée Alma Brut is a sparkling wine produced in the Franciacorta region of Lombardy, Italy. This region is widely recognized for its high-quality sparkling wines that rival Champagne. The wines are made using the traditional method, also known as méthode Champenoise, where the second fermentation takes place in the bottle.
Grande Cuvée Alma Brut is a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Nero (Pinot Noir), and Pinot Bianco (Pinot Blanc), although the exact proportions can vary slightly from year to year depending on the character of the vintage. The wine usually spends around 48-60 months on the lees, which enhances its complexity and creates a creamy texture.
In terms of tasting notes, Bellavista Grande Cuvée Alma Brut is delicate and with a complex bouquet of ripe fruit, floral notes, and hints of bread crust or yeast due to its lengthy lees aging. On the palate, it's fresh, well-structured, and balanced, with a persistent finish.
This wine is often enjoyed as an aperitif but also pairs well with a variety of dishes, including seafood, light pasta dishes, poultry, and soft cheeses.
