"This is rich and creamy with notes of glazed lemons, candied peaches, bread crust, almonds and dried flowers. Dry with fine bubbles and vivid acidity with creamy texture that extends to a long, polished finish. Drink now."

"The Contratto 2020 Alta Langa Metodo Classico Millesimato Pas Dos, opens to a luminous golden color with a very faint hint of shiny copper. The beading is slower and softer in this wine, and it proceeds to the palate with easy tones of peach, tropical fruit and baked pear. This hot- vintage wine does not taste as fresh as some of its predecessors."
