About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit is grown in Petra’s vineyards in Maremma, Tuscany, on limestone-rich, mineral soils.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand into small crates and macerated on their skins at the winery. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation.

Ageing

The wine ages for 12 months in large oak barrels and steel vats.

Serving and pairing

Pair with red meat dishes, steak, hot appetisers and young cheeses.

Label / history

Belvento is Petra’s range of “sea wines”, inspired by Tuscany’s maritime character and wild landscape.
