Bellavista winery
IT WAS BORN IN FRANCIACORTA IN 1977 BY THE WILL OF THE ENTREPRENEUR VITTORIO MORETTI WHO DECIDED IN THAT YEAR TO TRANSFORM A SMALL WINE-GROWING BUSINESS BASED ON SOME HECTARES OF FAMILY PROPERTY INTO A COMPANY. THEY ARE LOCATED ON THE BELLAVISTA HILL, SO NAMED FOR THE BEAUTIFUL POSITION THAT, FROM A SINGLE POINT, EMBRACES LAKE ISEO AND THE ENTIRE PADANA PLAIN UP TO THE CHAIN OF THE ALPS. WITH LONGIMIRANCE, VITTORIO MORETTI DEDES PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE PURCHASE OF NEW VINEYARDS UP TO THE CURRENT 203 HECTARES OF VINES, INCLUDED IN THE VOCATION AREA OF THE FRANCIACORTA. IN 1981 VITTORIO MORETTI MEETS THE OENOLOGIST MATTIA VEZZOLA WHO BECOMES PART OF THE COMPANY IN THE SAME YEAR. HIS ROLE WILL BE DETERMINING FOR THE DEFINITION OF THE BELLAVISTA STYLE. IN 2007 MATTIA VEZZOLA WAS AWARDED THE IMPORTANT CAREER RECOGNITION BY THE GUIDE VINI D'ITALIA DEL GAMBERO ROSSO-SLOW FOOD - AS "ENOLOGIST OF THE YEAR". RESPECT FOR TRADITIONS IS CONCRETED IN THE RECOVERY OF A UNIQUE GESTURE, RECOGNIZED IN THE WORLD AS A RARE EXPRESSION OF FINENESS, BALANCE AND ELEGANCE. THE USE OF TRADITIONAL PRESSES GUARANTEES A GENTLE PRESSING OF THE GRAPES AND A PARTICULAR FRACTION OF THE MUSTS. IN SPRING, WHEN CUVÉE ARE CREATED, BELLAVISTA HAS AN AVERAGE HERITAGE OF Ninety SELECTIONS, PART OF WHICH ARE FERMENTED IN SMALL OAK BARRELS. EXCELLENCE IS A DAILY GOAL THAT BELLAVISTA PURSUES THROUGH THE APPLICATION OF PRECISE PARAMETERS. FROM THE VINEYARD TO THE WINE, EVERYTHING IS ENTRUSTED TO NATURAL PROCESSING. EVERY CHOICE IS MADE IN THE CONCLUSION IMPOSED BY THE RHYTHMS OF NATURE AND BY THE HISTORY OF THE FRANCIACORTA TERRITORY.A.
