In those years, the Contratto family began building the historic winery, which was completed in the early 20th century.Around 1910, Contratto wines began to conquer foreign markets and became synonymous with prestige and quality in the world of sparkling wines, so much so that the Canelli company became the official supplier to the Vatican, the Belgian Royal Family and, in 1913, the Royal House of Savoy. In 1920, Contratto began producing vermouths and liqueurs. The processing techniques and recipes of that time have remained more or less unchanged, so that the taste of yesteryear can still be tasted today.Giuseppe Contratto srlVia G.B.
