Bellussì Blanc de Noir Brut

Bellussì Blanc de Noir Brut is an Italian sparkling wine, made from 100% Pinot Nero. A blue grape from which white sparkling wine is made. You don't see that often in Italy. The grapes come from the rolling hills of the Oltrepò Pavese and are harvested entirely by hand. The Bellussi Spumanti house, located in the heart of Valdobbiadene, is known for its meticulous approach to sparkling wines.

Taste of Bellussì Blanc de Noir Brut

In the glass, this spumante displays a subtle straw-yellow color, sometimes with a hint of gold. A fine and persistent pearly mousse accompanies every sip.

The taste is balanced, with a pleasant freshness that supports the structure. Fruity notes alternate with riper, more developed accents, giving the wine surprising depth. As a brut, this spumante is dry and clear in taste.

Grapes, terroir and vinification

Bellussì Blanc de Noir Brut is made exclusively from Pinot Nero, a red grape that is vinified white here. The grapes grow on the hills of the Oltrepò Pavese, an area known for the quality of its Pinot Nero.

After manual harvesting, the grapes undergo partial cold maceration, followed by gentle pressing. This method preserves the freshness of the fruit and ensures that hardly any color is extracted from the skins, even though they are red grapes.

Delicious with / food and wine pairing

Thanks to its versatility and fresh character, this spumante lends itself to a wide range of occasions. Think, for example, of:

• Fish dishes
• Shellfish
• White meat, such as chicken or turkey
• Mild cheeses
• Carpaccio
• As an aperitif
