Description
The Bellini is a timeless aperitif with a Venetian soul: invented by Giuseppe Cipriani, founder of Harry’s Bar, and named after the painter Giovanni Bellini, it owes its distinctive character to the careful selection of white peaches, which are nurtured by the Canella family until they reach perfect ripeness – juicy, sweet and with an intense aroma. This Bellini delights with fresh, fruity aromas: on the nose, ripe white peaches with a hint of raspberry; on the palate, lively, delicately sparkling and harmonious, with a creamy texture and a balanced interplay of sweetness and tartness – characterised by the freshness of the Spumante Brut and a moderate alcohol content. Its delicate pink colour catches the eye and makes it the perfect companion for balmy evenings on the terrace, sundowners by the water or a relaxed, stylish brunch.
To ensure full flavor and freshness, each bottle has a best-by date.

Veneto
Veneto: land of the Amarone and Prosecco
Veneto stretches from the Alpine foothills, through the flat Po Valley, to the Gulf of Venice on the Adriatic coast. Two types of wine in particular have been able to celebrate spectacular successes here in recent years: Amarone growths impress with their opulent body and force, while the cheerfully bubbling Proseccos please with their fruity, grape freshness. But the region also produces drinkable everyday wines, including the white Soave and the red Bardolino.
Italy
Italy – Where wine is a way of life
The Italian wine regions are extremely diverse, and this is made clear in their wines. Established varieties such as Merlot, Syrah, and Sauvignon can be found on just 15 percent of the total vine growing area. The remaining 85 percent is reserved for autochthonous, indigenous varieties. More than 2,000 different grape varieties are grown under diverse conditions and pressed with various techniques into wines that reach the top tier of the international wine market.
