Azienda Agricola Bellenda, Sergio Cosmo, Veneto

On the hills surrounding Conegliano, about 50 miles north of Venice, lies the beautiful estate of Bellenda. In 1987 Sergio Cosmo started this winery located in the very heart of the Prosecco producing region while also completely replacing the vine varieties on land he already owned. Today the estate is run by Umberto and Luigi Cosmo who have a passion for wine making which marries tradition and innovation for the production of truly outstanding wines.

 

Delicate and slighlty aromatic sparkling wine, 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 with Charmat method 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.

Grape: 100% Gléra
