“Bellalasta is a place of joy,

Of family gatherings and of conviviality.

The true joy of drinking a great bottle is sharing it.”

The History

Bellalasta is a pioneer of the “Amarone” method since the early 1900s. We still keep custody of the first bottles in our private cellar.

The Terroir

ARTisanal

Where wine is a living art, and craftsmanship becomes inspiration - from pruning to harvesting, from pressing to labelling we do everything manually and naturally to obtain the best-crafted wine.

Beyond Organic

Bellalasta is an ecosystem where science meets sensitivity, and wine tells a story made of invisible energy and visible care. For us, organic is just the beginning of a deeper journey: cultivating energy.

Tasting Experience

Unlike many other wineries, at Bellalasta, you will have the rare opportunity to explore the estate and the cellar, and enjoy the tasting guided by the winemaker and farmer, Iacopo.

Our Wines

Bellalasta takes pride from producing only micro-batches, in total less than 5.000 numbered bottles per year of the finest wine.

"Bellalasta, suspended up there halfway along a rounded hill of vines, stones, and olive trees.

And you watch and listen happy to our swift passing, the smiling faces and our conversations in the deep darkness of the beautiful cellar, a mine of years and wines."

This is a verse of a poem that has been written by our great-grandfather about the Bellalasta estate.

The original goes like this:

“Bellalasta sospesa lassù a metà di una tonda collina di viti di sassi di olivi.
E guardi e ascolti contenta il nostro succedere svelto, i visi ridenti e i nostri discori nel buio spesso della bella cantina miniera di anni e di vini”
