Come raise a glass to warmer days, Alpine breezes, and the delicious art of Northern Italy!
Wine Wednesday | Contratto Aperitivo & Sparkling Wines | Spring in a Glass
Spring has officially tapped us on the shoulder, and we’re answering with bubbles, bitters, and a little Northern Italian glamour.
We’ll be pouring the newly released Contrattino Organic Aperitivo, along with its beautifully crafted non-alcoholic version, plus two sparkling wines from Contratto to complete the experience.
Now guided by the vision of Giorgio Rivetti, Contratto has entered a remarkable new era. Rivetti is widely admired for transforming estates in Piedmont and Tuscany through uncompromising quality and bold imagination. With Contratto, that same energy extends beyond wine into world-class sparkling wines, vermouths, and aperitivi rooted in tradition but tuned for today’s palate.
The new Contrattino Organic Aperitivo is bright, herbaceous, citrus-laced, and wonderfully balanced, equally suited for a spritz, over ice, or simply admired in the glass. Its non-alcoholic counterpart delivers the same botanical charm and bittersweet sophistication, proving that flavor never needs permission from alcohol.
We’re also delighted to welcome our good friend Erin Lewis, co-owner of Giuliana Imports, who will be here to pour the lineup, share stories behind the bottles, and visit with guests throughout the evening.
If spring had a passport stamp, it might look like this tasting.
