Description
The Pas Dosé Novecento sparkling wine is produced by the Contract winery, one of the historic companies in the city of Canelli, in the province of Asti. The sparkling wine owes its name to the Brut Riserva Novecento and was born in 1986 to commemorate, a year in advance, the 120th anniversary of the contract.
The wine consists of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes, which are destemmed and then softly pressed. The fermentation of the grapes takes place in steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The wine is made sparkling in the bottle according to the classic method and is aged on the lees for at least 90 months.
Straw yellow in color and with a fine and persistent perlage, the nose reveals aromas of wild flowers, candied fruit and crusty bread. The sip is broad, fine and persistent.
Excellent as an aperitif, it goes well with fish carpaccio and sushi.
