Alma Bellavista Grande Cuvée - Franciacorta DOCG
Alma Grande Cuvée is the maximum expression of the Franciacorta Method of the Bellavista winery, a now rare artisan method. Blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Nero and a small part of Pinot Bianco, Alma Brut is born from the union of about 60 selections of grapes from the same harvest but from different vineyards (horizontal assembly) with some "reserve" wines from previous vintages (blending vertical) that enrich the already ample olfactory and gustatory heritage of Alma Cuvée. Important is the fermentation and élevage of part of the base wines in small white oak barrels which give Alma intensity and complexity. The result is a Franciacorta of excellent elegance and persuasive finesse, with a vibrant character supported without any compromise by a freshness that maintains its persistence for a long time.

For this wine, we rely on the oldest vines in the Podere Massoni vineyard, planted on shaley-clay soils, on a low yield of 70 quintals per hectare, and a fairly late harvest date (mid October).

Valpolicella Classico Superiore is a well-structured red wine, produced from Corvina Veronese, Rondinella and Corvinone grapes, mainly grown in the Sant'Ambrogio di Valpolicella vineyard.

Ripasso Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore DOC - Zenato Winery
From the Ripasso method comes Zenato's Ripassa Valpolicella, a refined, full-bodied and very velvety wine, the result of the best selection of Valpolicella "re-passed" on the Amarone pomace. The second short fermentation enriches this Venetian wine in aroma, structure and softness, making it one of the most important wines of the Zenato winery.

The Amarone is a small jewel of Zenato's wines, made from outstanding corvina, rondinella and sangiovese grapes of the Valpolicella Classico zone, in the communes of Sant’Ambrogio, Negrar, Pedemonte, Fumane, San Pietro in Cariano and Marano.
