Bellenda
Bellenda is a winery in Veneto, in the northeast of Italy, where the continental climate and alluvial soils favor the production of sparkling wines. The house works primarily with Glera, the grape behind Prosecco, as well as Pinot Noir and the local Raboso Piave. Its Ca' Maleni Brut Prosecco—a dry expression of the region's signature varietal—sits alongside a Rosé Spumante Brut and a Metodo Classico Brut, each made in the traditional méthode champenoise or ancestral style. These wines have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, and Decanter. Veneto's sparkling tradition rests on precision and freshness; Bellenda's portfolio reflects the region's focus on crisp acidity and fine bubbles.
