Casetta Belvedere

Casetta Belvedere operates within the `DOCG Colli Bolognesi Pignoletto`, a delimited area encompassing eleven municipalities in Emilia-Romagna. The primary grape variety is `Grechetto gentile`, complemented by authorized white grape varieties—including `Pinot nero` and `Pinot grigio` vinified as white wines—on which the winery builds its range within the temperate climate of the Bolognese hills. From this foundation, three distinct expressions emerge: still white, semi-sparkling (`frizzante`), and sparkling (`spumante`), each bound by the minimum alcohol content of 11.5% stipulated by the production specifications. This approach leverages the versatility of `Grechetto gentile`, capable of supporting both the still version and the secondary fermentation for bubbles without losing its distinctive character. The precision required by the denomination is reflected in the fresh and temperate character of these wines, where the altitude and exposure of the hills maintain the acidic tension necessary for sparkling wines. The result is a coherent portrait of `Pignoletto` in its three forms, anchored to a territory that clearly defines its boundaries and style.
