Bellavista
Convento Santissima Annuciata Curtefranca White Blend
This is a very interesting Chardonnay from Lombardi, Italy.
Strong fruity nose, and dry on the palate. Loved the nose here.
Showing yellow apples, butter, oak, light vanilla, wild flowers, spices and white pepper.
Nicely balanced with nice complexity. Easy drinking with a nice mouthfeel.
This 6 year old Chardonnay will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 years.
Good by itself or with food. A great sipping wine, smooth and elegant.
100% Chardonnay grapes were aged in Oak barrels for 4 years.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
90 points.
$40.

Venerable sparkling producer from Lombardi. This is almost like traditional method sparkling in a still wine format, if such a thing exists. Extensive lees contact, very yeasty with lingering richness on mid palate and some earth notes. Definitely an intellectual wine, but enjoyable with some exciting food potential.

Aug 28th, 2013Fantastic Chardonnay from a 4 acre single vineyard from a monastery. Beautiful minerality with completely integrated kiss of oak with still wonderful acidity and depth in the fruit. Lengthy Finish.
