2021 Cantina Bellavista Franciacorta Alma Terra Curtefranca Bianco DOC (Chardonnay) - Erbusco (BS) Lombardy, Italy
In his De Rerum Natura, Lucretius designates Venus as “Alma”, that is, she who generates and gives life. A spirit that encapsulates the very essence of Bellavista and its winemaking style, embodied by this still white. A pure chardonnay, combining the characters of 4 distinct terraced vineyards, similar in terms of exposure, ventilation and texture. The must ferment and mature in small oak casks for the most appropriate length of time in view of perfect aromatic and gustatory stability. Eventually, the wine displays a straw color with lovely greenish flashes, and a bouquet of seductive flower and mixed citrus fruit aromas, summarized in a frank, full and inviting mouthfeel. On the palate, the sensations become increasingly warm and complex, and finally bring out notes of acacia honey and hazelnut. The texture is fine and silky, the final persistence is noteworthy
