Absolute . Free from all limits, a constantly evolving value. Like the exclusive commitment necessary to create this Franciacorta dedicated to Annamaria Clementi, founder of Ca 'del Bosco and mother of Maurizio Zanella. No compromises, no concessions. Only the best of the grapes selected in the various crus are predestined for this symbolic wine. And only in the best years. Meticulous vinification and a very long refinement in the bottle that lasts for at least seven years in contact with the yeasts: this is how a great wine is created, a unicum with a magnificent golden color and very fine perlage. A perfume of extraordinary complexity, a flavor of exceptional fullness and persistence. An absolute Franciacorta.

Identity. Virtue written in the etymology of an ancient term: idem, or being oneself. Cuvée Prestige, the essence of Franciacorta in the Ca 'del Bosco style. A jewel born in 2007 from thirty years of knowledge. Only the best selections of Chardonnay, Pinot nero and Pinot bianco grapes from the best vineyards are vinified separately and wisely assembled to the reserves of the best vintages (at least 20%), in the magical rite of creating the Cuvée. Only after at least 24 months of aging on the lees this wine will be able to express its richness and identity. A classic Franciacorta, balanced, pleasantly fresh and acidulous. Perfect for any occasion.

At sight it shows a straw yellow color. The nose opens on the fruit brought by the Chardonnay, in a whirlwind of elegant and always well-defined notes. On the palate it is medium-bodied, balanced, with a sip characterized by a fresh taste, which moves in perfect harmony with the aromas previously perceived on the nose. Try it with vegetable risotto, it is also excellent with fried zucchini and anchovies. Perfect with a fresh salmon tartare.

Salmon pink color with golden reflections, with a very fine and incessant perlage, it smells of pastry, strawberries and almond sugared almonds, marzipan, aromatic herbs and notes of gunpowder. Amazing taste, balanced and enveloping, silky and moderately savory, with decisive acid support and very long persistence. With white fish and raw and steamed crustaceans, with a steak of tuna with sesame, with pork loin in crust, with semi-aged cheeses and with diced pistachio mortadella.

Our extra virgin olive oil is produced in the hilly areas of the province of Mantua near Lake Garda. The position, the altitude and the calcareous nature of these soils are in fact particularly suitable for the cultivation of the olive tree.

Provocation . But also revelation. The story is ironically well portrayed on the label by a wolf in lambskin. Carmenére is a vine originating from the Bordeaux area, confused for a long time with Cabernet franc. Despite having organoleptic traits in common, it is a very different grape variety: much more intense and spicy. Ca 'del Bosco in 1996 entrusted the Faculty of Agriculture of the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart of Piacenza with the task of revealing its existence, origin and identity. Carmenero stands out for its very intense and dark color, for its powerful and spicy aroma, for its full, rich and original taste.

A Franciacorta that needs no introduction. Produced for the first time in 2007, this wine is born from the assembly of Chardonnay, Pinot Nero and Pinot Bianco grapes vinified separately and then added to the Reserves of the best vintages, which combined wisely give rise to this prestigious Cuvée. FRANCIACORTA CA 'DEL BOSCO

Fruit of all the attention and care that distinguish the production of Bellavista , Franciacorta Rosé is born from an assembly of the best grapes of pinot noir and chardonnay, a sparkling wine where the structure of the first meets the grace of the second. The essence of pinot noir not only gives color an important role of tonality and stability, but also becomes the elusive, delicate and constant taste-olfactory trait that makes a graceful masterpiece of nature distinctive. An extraordinary Franciacorta, whose permanence in the cellar is at least 5 years.

Alma Cuvée was born from the skilful combination 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 plots distributed in 10 different municipalities of Franciacorta ("horizontal assembly"). To this wide 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 integral and often mysterious soul of Franciacorta.

CUVÉE PRESTIGE Identity. A virtue that is found in the etymology of an ancient word: idem, or to be the same. Cuvée Prestige, the essence of Franciacorta, in the Ca 'del Bosco style. A jewel born in 2007 from thirty years of experience. Only the best Chardonnay (75%), Pinot Nero (15%) and Pinot Bianco (10%) grapes from 134 vineyards, vinified separately and wisely blended with reserves of the most beautiful vintages (at least 20%) enter the magical rite of Cuvée Creation . It will take 28 months of aging on the lees before this wine is ready to express all its richness and identity. A classic Franciacorta, balanced, pleasantly fresh and crunchy. Perfect for any occasion.

The Gran Cuvée millesimato of Bellavista differs from the traditional Bruts not only for the quality of the raw material that is used but also and above all for the fact that over a quarter of the wines from which it is made matures for seven months in small oak barrels. Bellavista 's Franciacorta DOCG Brut is in fact a magnificent Franciacorta for stature and balance, the result of a not abundant vintage but of excellent quality. A mythical sparkling wine.
