93 James Suckling
This is a longtime favorite and delicious in this vintage. Aromas of sliced pear and green apple follow through to a full body, with lots of candied apple character and a medium finish. White pepper too.
90 Wine Spectator
Elegant, with a soft and creamy texture. Juicy acidity balances the honey and spice notes that lace flavors of blackberry pâte de fruit, salted almond, lemon confit and apple tarte Tatin. Drink now through 2020. 5,000 cases made. –AN

Producer
Bellavista
Easily comparable, if not better than a good non-vintage Champagne, Bellavista is one of Franciacorta’s most famous producers beside Ca’ del Bosco. What started as a hobby over three decades ago for founder Vittorio Moretti, and winemaker, Mattia Vezzola, Bellavista now produces flavorful and refined sparkling wines. Franciacorta is Italy’s response to French Champagne. The wines are fermented in the same way, with second fermentation in the bottle – this aging on the lees adds complexity and richness, as well as a natural sparkle. With patience for the art, Bellavista’s concentration and devotion to the vinification process shine through in their brilliant Franciacorta wines.
