About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow in Petra’s vineyards in the Maremma area of Tuscany, on limestone-rich, mineral soils.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand into small crates and undergo skin maceration at the winery. The must ferments in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation.

Ageing

The wine ages for 12 months in large oak barrels.

Serving and pairing

Pairs well with red meat dishes, steak, warm starters and young cheeses.

Label / history

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