The Spumante Special Cuvée Pas Dosé by Contratto is an excellent example of the Piedmont sparkling wine tradition, produced in the historic Langhe area, famous for its rich and complex terroirs. Made with a skillful selection of grapes from high hillside vineyards, this Pas Dosé embodies the perfect harmony between freshness and minerality, typical of the region's limestone-clay soils.
Fermentation takes place according to the classic method, with a long aging on the lees that gives the wine a refined aromatic complexity and a fine, persistent foam. On the nose, it opens with notes of green apple, fresh citrus, and slight hints of bread crust, while on the palate it reveals an elegant structure, balanced by a vibrant acidity and a dry, decisive finish, without added sugars, which enhances its purity.
Perfect as an aperitif, this Spumante Special Cuvée Pas Dosé pairs gracefully with delicate seafood dishes, such as oysters and fish carpaccio, or with more intense flavors like fresh cheeses and light main courses. An authentic expression of Contratto's artisanal care, ideal for refined tasting moments and important celebrations.
