Contratto is a historic Italian wine producer known for its exceptional sparkling wines and vermouths, with a heritage that dates back to 1867 in the Piedmont region. The brand was established by Carlo Contratto, who was among the pioneers of metodo classico sparkling wine production in Italy. Over the years, Contratto has built a reputation for its artisanal approach and commitment to quality, emphasizing traditional methods while embracing innovation to create distinctive and high-caliber products.
Contratto’s sparkling wines are primarily made using the traditional method (metodo classico), where secondary fermentation occurs in the bottle, creating fine bubbles and complex flavors. The winery sources its grapes from select vineyards in the Langhe, Roero, and Monferrato regions, focusing on indigenous varietals like Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The resulting wines, particularly their Alta Langa sparkling wines, are celebrated for their elegance, depth, and expressive character, often featuring notes of ripe fruit, toasted brioche, and a refreshing acidity.
In addition to sparkling wines, Contratto is renowned for its vermouths, which are crafted using a blend of white wines and an infusion of carefully selected botanicals, herbs, and spices. The vermouths are noted for their rich flavors and aromatic complexity, making them versatile for both sipping and mixing in cocktails. With a dedication to craftsmanship and a rich history in Italian winemaking, Contratto continues to be a revered name in the world of sparkling wines and vermouths, appealing to enthusiasts who appreciate authenticity and tradition.
