The Spumante Alta Langa Rosé DOCG Contessa Rosa Riserva Brut 60 mesi - Fontanafredda is born in the Piedmont hills between the provinces of Asti and Cuneo, an ideal territory for the classic method thanks to its cool climate and calcareous-poor soils. This wine is mainly made from Pinot Nero, the flagship grape of the denomination, which gives elegance and structure to the olfactory bouquet. The aging for a full 60 months on the lees in the bottle imparts a unique aromatic complexity, with hints of toasted bread, red fruits, and subtle notes of rose. On the palate it is fresh, vibrant, and savory, with a fine and persistent bubble. Its liveliness and delicacy make it perfect to accompany refined fish dishes, shellfish, and seafood appetizers, but also preparations based on white meats or aged cheeses with a not too overpowering taste, enhancing its versatility. A precious perlage and a decisive character that tell the charm of the Alta Langa.
