Bellenda
Bellenda is a family company passionate about its wine-making heritage. The past is solid, secure, as the ground dense of our rows, nevertheless the future is liquid, researched, as the best fruit of our vineyards. Bellenda is the link between the two realities, the family-business that succeeded in condensing the wisdom of the soil in the richness of wine. A living challenge for the Cosmos to combine tradition and innovation with the goal of realizing the best expression of our wines. These DOCG superior grapes are restricted to a limited area of Valdobbiadene-Conegliano, including the vineyards of Carpesica, a family’s property. The winery and the vineyards are in Carpesica, a little hamlet of Vittorio Veneto, on the east-north side of DOCG area. The passion of our Oenologists for the Traditional Method opens the door to one of the first productions of Prosecco with Tradicional Method (Champagne) in the National and International Market.
Description
San Fermo is produced through a natural fermentation of our glera grapes grown in the Conegliano hills, then refermented and matured over a number of months first in steel then in the bottle. This Prosecco expresses the renowned qualities classic to the glacier-derived morainic hills where these grapes are grown. In the glass, it appears luminous and sparkling, with a dense, continuous bead of pin-point bubbles. The bouquet is delicate and fragrant, the palate savoury with a fine vein of minerality, and the finish concludes with a tasty tang of crisp walnut husk.
Food Pairing
San Fermo makes an outstanding aperitif, but it pairs beautifully as well with antipasti and with vegetable and fish first courses.
