Bellaria Farm

Winegrowers in Montalcino by passion and profession since 1963

Bellaria Farm is in one of the most appropriate and characteristic area in Montalcino. It consists of about 40 hectares, 3 of them are vineyards, between woods and olive groves at an altitude of about 500 meters above sea level. Here, my family has been producing Brunello di Montalcino and extra virgin olive oil since 1963, respecting traditional methods. I, Gianni Bernazzi, have been carrying on the farm since 2010, as my grandfather taught me: no shortcuts!

1963: It all begins with Assunto Pieri and Bruna Tempori

Together they bought Bellaria, to work the land and start a family

In those days, the land fed them, in addition to being a source of income and in Montalcino, you could also produce an excellent wine.

1967: Assunto is one of the founders of the Brunello Wine Consortium

A production specification and a guarantee label are established

The statute was signed by 15 direct growers, 3 small landowners and 7 medium and large landowners.

2010: The leadership of the farm passes to his grandson Gianni Bernazzi

Thanks to Gianni Bernazzi there is both a marketing evolution and a company logistics improvement

The work in the vineyard and in the cellar are carried out as his grandfather taught him: no shortcuts!

2004: The farm enriches its production with a new line named Assunto

Our excellence line wines

The wines of this production come from an old vineyard of about 40 years that grandfather Assunto planted

2015: La Riserva wins 100/100 by James Suckling

James Suckling assigns 100/100 to Brunello Assunto Riserva 2010

What could be more gratifying than to get recognition for the attention and passion you put into your work every day?

Why will our wines surprise you?

The terrain variety, that is a gift for the wine, remains intact by respecting the peculiarities of the grape and the land during viticulture and winemaking processes (no use of systemic products, no irrigation, no fertilization, no selected yeasts).
