Contratto Millesimato Pas Dosé 2014
"A blend of 80% Pinot Nero and 20% Chardonnay, the Metodo Classico Millesimato Pas Dosé ages on the yeasts for 5 years. Riddling is done by hand. Thi is a mid-weight sparkler that borders closely on being full-bodied. The mouthfeel is beautifully creamy and rich with abudant apricot, honey and sweet almond. I tasted this wine after a 30-wine flight f Barolos and Barbarescos and I cannot exaggerate how delicious and appealing this wine ultimately proved to be" (Robert Parker)
