IGT Umbria, Arnèto, Bellafonte - 2023

Arnèto first impresses with its luminous, deep, almost hypnotic golden colour. It embodies all the magic of Trebbiano Spoletino, which combines density, tension and great minerality without ever becoming heavy. Ageing on fine lees in large casks lends depth and texture, whilst preserving a remarkable freshness. The nose opens with notes of white truffle, almond, broom and dried flowers. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied yet finely crafted, with a briny energy that lingers on the finish. A white wine with character, perfect for fine dining, both sunny and vibrant.

Technique

Viticulture

This cuvée is produced using only the finest grapes. The vines are around ten years old, situated at an altitude of between 250 and 320 metres, and trained using the Guyot method at a density of 4,000 vines per hectare. The soil consists of alternating layers of clay and marl.

Oenology

After a few days of cold maceration on the skins, the must is transferred to large Slavonian oak casks where fermentation begins naturally thanks to indigenous yeasts. The wine undergoes spontaneous malolactic fermentation and remains on its lees for over 7 months before being clarified by decanting. Bottling takes place without filtration in order to preserve the wine’s vitality. After bottling, it is aged in the bottle for at least 6 months before release.

Suggestions for accompaniment

Rock fish in sauce - Shellfish - Octopus in manzanilla jelly.

Domain
Tenuta Bellafonte is located in the heart of the primitive part of the region, a stone's throw from the towns of Bevagna and Assisi. It was founded in the mid-2000s by Peter Heilbron, an international executive with a passion for great wines, who decided to convert to a new career, taking his friend the late Gianfranco Soldera of the legendary Case Basse as his model. He fell in love with this terroir and decided to try to tame the Sagrantino grape variety, which is very generous in colour, tannins and alcohol, in order to create a great red wine that is refined and capable of aging gracefully. But his talent does not stop there, as he now produces a range of wines that shines with its accuracy and its fidelity to the local terroir, full of character.
