‘Understand the potentialities in order to reach the excellence’: this is the philosophy of Bellavista’s cave, that all along it has respected and expressed this idea. Bellavista cave takes the name from the hill, where it is situated: it looks out into the Iseo Lake and the Alpi. This winery rises in 1977 in Franciacorta for want of Vittorio Moretti, who decided to transform the familiar property in a little cave, where it was possible to produce wine. This last has an important value for Vittorio Moretti, it is a moment where the experience becomes a destination.
