The Spumante Metodo Classico De Miranda by Contratto is born in the historic Piedmontese winery located in the heart of the Langhe, a land renowned for producing elegant and complex wines. This sparkling wine is made from selected grapes that fully enhance the expression of the local terroir, characterized by an ideal microclimate and calcareous-clayey soils rich in minerals. The Metodo Classico, or bottle refermentation, gives the De Miranda an extremely fine and persistent perlage, a symbol of freshness and refinement.

In the glass, it shows a bright straw-yellow color and delicate aromas where scents of green apple, citrus, and subtle notes of bread crust due to aging on the lees intertwine. On the palate, it is harmonious and fresh, with a pleasant sapidity that highlights its structure and provides balance, making it versatile and ideal for accompanying seafood appetizers, fish dishes, and refined convivial moments.

The Spumante Metodo Classico De Miranda proves to be an authentic ambassador of Piedmontese tradition, a wine capable of expressing finesse and character in every sip.

Winery history
Founded by Giuseppe Contratto in 1867 in Canelli, the estate began by vinifying Moscato grapes and producing bottle‑fermented sparkling wines. In the early decades of the twentieth century Contratto wines gained foreign markets and royal contracts; in 1919 the company produced Italy’s first vintage sparkling wine. From 1920 the production of vermouth and liqueurs was added. The Contratto family remained at the helm until 1993, when the company passed to the Bocchino family; subsequently, in 2011, ownership was acquired by the Rivetti family, who have relaunched Metodo Classico production and expanded its presence in Alta Langa.
Production philosophy
A range focused on vineyard quality and respect for the land: careful vineyard management, low yields, and agronomic practices aimed at organic farming, with the goal of expressing the land’s identity through long-aged sparkling wines.
Terroir and vineyards
Historic headquarters in Canelli, in the province of Asti. The estate also operates vineyards in Alta Langa for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay; the historic underground cellars carved into tuff are an asset for the aging of Metodo Classico wines.
