Bellavista 2004 Gran Cuvée Pas Opere Sparkling (Franciacorta)

Country: Italy / Gran Cuvée Pas Opere
Variety: Sparkling Blend Lombardy
Winery: Bellavista / Franciacorta

There’s a warm, yeasty quality to this bright sparkling blend (with Chardonnay and Pinot Nero) from northern Italy. It is redolent of apricot, toasted almond, freshly baked bread and dried roses. In the mouth, it shows a drying feel and piquant, fresh bubbling.
