Tenuta Bellafonte Arneto

Tenuta Bellafonte Arneto. This native Trebbiano grape has undergone a vivid revival in the last 10 years; it is a unique white variety that has always belonged to our territory and its agriculture. Evidence of its cultivation dates to the 1st century A.C. Originating from Spoleto area it is capable to produce wines of great expressiveness, very different from the ones obtained from the other autochthonous varieties of central Italy. This Trebbiano produces very aromatic wines with a strong character as well as always having a balanced acidity and great longevity.

It is carried out using only the best grapes. After a few days of cold maceration on the skins, the must is transferred into large Slavonian oak barrels where fermentation starts naturally thanks to the wild yeast. The wine spontaneously undergoes malolactic fermentation and remains on its lees for more than 7 months before being clarified through decantation. The bottling is made without filtration in order to preserve the vitality of the wine; the deposit that may happen is index of such production choice. After the bottling the Arnèto refines in bottle for at least 6 months before commercialization.

Winery Description

Tenuta Bellafonte is a dream come true; the desire to interpret a territory and wine with ancient roots in a new way. The name symbolises a project which has developed gradually, achieving more and more momentum in time. It began almost like a game, breaking down our family name of German origin in: ‘Heil’ meaning wellbeing and beauty in a broader sense, and ‘Bron’ meaning source.

Tenuta Bellafonte is located in the heart of the most unspoilt part of Umbria, not far from Bevagna, near the beautiful village of Torre del Colle which, once surpassed, reveals a most breath taking view: hills and hillocks that alternate with woodlands, set among orderly vineyards and olive trees with ruffled silvery crowns.
