The Franciacorta Grande Cuvée Alma Rosé Pas Dosé by Bellavista was born in vineyards located in the heart of Franciacorta DOCG. The name Alma, which in Latin means "she who feeds", is a tribute to this land. It is mainly produced from Chardonnay grapes, with the addition of Pinot Noir grapes, harvested and selected exclusively by hand from vines with an average age of over 25 years. Once the grapes have been vinified, the wines are aged in pièces (228-litre Burgundian barriques). The sparkling process takes place according to the classic method, with aging on the lees. It is characterized by an antique pink color and a fine and persistent perlage. The nose opens with a broad perfume, among which pleasant nuances of Mediterranean flowers, citrus fruits, peach, lychee and pomegranate stand out, with final notes reminiscent of white chocolate, almond and marzipan. On the palate it is pleasantly sapid and complete in the aftertaste, with a long and persistent finish. Perfect as an aperitif and to accompany appetizers and fish-based first courses.

Alma Cuvée is born from the skilful union of about 60 of the 120 harvest selections obtained in the cellar. About 100 selections come from the same harvest and are identified with extreme care in 107 parcels distributed in 10 different municipalities of Franciacorta ("horizontal assembly"). To this vast patrimony of olfactory and gustatory variations are then added the aromas and flavors of particular "reserve wines" from different harvests ("vertical assembly"). A unique cuvée, which with its elegant complexity represents the most complete and often mysterious soul of Franciacorta.

It is told through a sensory profile that evolves giving altogether sapidity, freshness, finesse, elegance and agility: the result is simply superlative, given by the Franciacorta Non Dosato "Alma Grande Cuvée", labeled Bellavista . A bubble that wants to become the symbol of the purest essence of the lands of Franciacorta, proposing a sip with which Bellavista drops its mask, retracing its history in a contemporary key. Here then is that every detail - label included - becomes a reference to the concept of harmony, both external and connected to the precious content. The apparent - and intended - aesthetic minimalism, again, finally connects with a Franciacorta that remains suspended in time, as if to recall the impossibility of finding glasses of a similar caliber.
