Details
De Bellavista wijngaard is 22,82 hectare groot en de Vigneto Bellavista Chianti Classico wordt sinds 1978 enkel in de allerbeste jaren gemaakt. Na de fermentatie en persing wordt de jonge wijn overgestoken op Franse eikenhouten barriques, waarvan 40% nieuw, en rijpt hier een periode van 15 maanden. De wijn is diep paars robijnrood van kleur. In de neus aroma’s van zwarte kersen, rode bessen, zoethout en Virginia tabak In het smaakpalet tonen van rijp klein zwart fruit, pruimen, salmiak en wilde munt, die gepaard gaan met een lang aanhoudende mineralige afdronk met rijpe tannine en elegante zuren.

Today, the 2013 Bellavista is especially forbidding. It won't be ready to drink for a good handful of years, and even that maybe optimistic.
Perswijn
2004: elegant, pruimen en kersen, laurier; puur, mooie tannine, finesse, fijn gerijpt.
Decanter
2015: The oldest plantings here date back to 1974, and the Gran Selexione, when produced, is from two selected parcels each of Sangiovese and Malvasia Nera. Beautifully refined and elegant, waeving together notes of tobacco, toast, liquorice, underbrush and bla
