The Contratto 2017 Alta Langa Metodo Classico Rosé Pas Dosé For England opens to a pale cranberry-pink color with amber highlights. The beading is fine and silky. In terms of this sparkler's aromas, you get tart citrus and lots of grapefruit with some orchard fruit, toast and crushed mineral. This wine shows a steely, tonic and firm personality, although you do also taste some of the soft, hot-vintage fruit.
