Wine Advocate (93)- "A blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, the Contratto 2017 Alta Langa Metodo Classico Millesimato Pas Dos opens to a pale pink color and ripe fruit aromas. There is a note of mature peach and some saffron, all surrounded by easy, round softness. The texture is what stands out most here in this very pretty ros sparkling wine. This mid-weight effort ends with a pretty spot of citrusy freshness."
Wine Advocate (93)- "Showing a pale pink appearance, the Contratto 2015 Alta Langa Metodo Classico Millesimato Pas Dosé shows a fine and tight personality that is reinforced by the delicate nature of the beading. To the bouquet, it reveals peach, grapefruit and a touch of baked almond biscuit. The blend is 85% Pinot Nero and 15% Chardonnay."
Vinous Media (91)- "Sweet green melon, white flowers and sweet smoke waft up from the 2015 Pas Dosé Metodo Classico Millesimato. This saturates the palate with mineral intensity while also soothing it with a cooling wave of silken bubbles. The 2015 is nutty and rich, but also finely sculpted, with vibrant acidity that maintains fantastic balance. It leaves a salty, savory sensation throughout the mouthwatering finale, as the cheeks pucker to a twang of sour lime. This is a blend of 80% Pinot Nero and 20% Chardonnay that could give many NV bottles of Champagne a run for their money. (Disgorgement L. 12/05/2021)"
