Description

Fontanafredda Contessa Rosa Alta Langa Brut Rosé Riserva 2020 is a traditional-method sparkling rosé, distinguished by its long 60-month maturation and its origins in Piemonte’s Alta Langa. The name also nods to Rosa Vercellana, a significant figure in Fontanafredda’s history.

Tasting Notes
The listing does not provide specific tasting notes. Alta Langa rosé of this style is typically delicate in colour, with fine, persistent bubbles and aromas that may suggest red berries, citrus and notes of pastry from extended time on the lees. Expect a brisk, dry palate, though the precise profile will depend on the bottle’s blend and condition. Its acidity and extended maturation should give it good staying power, but no specific drinking window is provided.

Production
The title indicates a 2020 vintage and 60 months of maturation, consistent with the traditional-method sparkling wines of Alta Langa. However, the supplied grape information conflicts with the appellation: Alta Langa DOCG sparkling wine is made from Pinot Nero and/or Chardonnay, not Nebbiolo. The grape variety should therefore be confirmed before publication; vineyard, harvest and vinification specifics are not supplied.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled, around 8–10°C, in a tulip-shaped sparkling-wine glass. Its dry, lively style should suit seafood, sushi, charcuterie, fried appetisers and fresh cheeses. Decanting is not recommended.

Producer
Fontanafredda was established in 1858 in the Langhe and has deep historical ties to Rosa Vercellana, known as the Contessa di Mirafiore. The estate is one of Piemonte’s best-known producers, with a portfolio spanning the region’s still wines and traditional-method sparkling wines.
