La Scala Vendemmia Brut Franciacorta DOCG 2015 - Bellavista
The Bellavista La Scala Vendemmia Brut Franciacorta DOCG from Bellavista seduces with very fine ascending perlage in the glass, which develops into a fascinating and persistent wreath of vivid bright yellow color, transparent shiny, with fresh greenish reflections. On the nose this exquisite sparkling wine from Franciacorta shows its classic style with sweet aromas of white ripe fruit, white almonds, patisserie, candied citrus fruits and fresh elderberry and hawthorn blossoms. On the palate this Franciacorta surprises with elegance and at the same time powerful taste, lively freshness, wonderfully balanced, harmonious and dynamic, complex texture, expressive, never boring, full of energy. Incredibly long aftertaste. A very long-lasting sparkling wine, which inspires for a long time and lastingly.
Vinification for the Bellavista La Scala Brut Franciacorta DOCG
The grapes for this excellent sparkling wine, dedicated to the famous Teatro La Scala, grow on selected vineyards in the Franciacorta area, between 180 and 350 m high, the average age of the vines is 25 years. For this wine 75% Chardonnay and 25% Pinot Noir are vinified together. The grapes are harvested manually at the best ripeness in September. One part of the base wines is fermented and matured in small 228 l wooden barrels made of white oak, the other part in stainless steel tanks. The cuvée is then aged on the yeasts for 4 years using the classic method of bottle fermentation. The harmonious fusion of the two grape varieties gives the wine complexity, depth, intensity and elegance.

Bellavista and the Teatro La Scala in Milan
In 2004, the famous Teatro La Scala in Milan was reopened in full splendour after two years of restoration work, accompanied by the wines of Bellavista, which with their vintage sparkling wines inspired by La Scala become part of this history. In the course of the collaboration, Bellavista's Millesimé becomes the house's wine of honour. Each vintage is dedicated to a new theatre season and the traditional opening of the season on 7 December is accompanied each year by a new vintage. The 2018-2019 season will be accompanied by La Scala Vendemmia Brut 2013, with a special homage to the origins of the theatre and its history.
