Descrizione

Born in the renowned lands of Piedmont, the Spumante For England Rosé Pas Dosé Magnum by Contratto is an oenological masterpiece that celebrates the Italian sparkling wine tradition with an international soul. It is produced with Pinot Noir grapes, hand-harvested in mountain vineyards benefiting from a fresh and sunny microclimate, ideal for preserving freshness and aromatic elegance.The classic method, with a long secondary fermentation in the bottle and several years of aging on the lees, gives this rosé a enveloping and refined structure. The absence of dosage (Pas Dosé) makes the sip dry and vibrant, enhancing its notes of small red fruits, such as wild strawberries and red currants, accompanied by mineral hints and nuances of fresh yeast.Perfect for any meal, it pairs well with raw fish dishes, shellfish, and delicate white meats, offering a tasting experience of great finesse and persistence. The Magnum format, ideal for special occasions, ensures a slow evolution and exceptional sensory complexity in every glass.

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.
