The history of the company Contri Spumanti is strictly connected to its founder: Luciano Contri, class of 1938, born in Cazzano di Tramigna.

At the age of fifteen, while Luciano was preparing to begin his studies on oenology, the family experienced great difficulties due to a serious illness that affected his father Luigi and forced him to stay away from home for two entire years.

It was the over 90 grandfather, founder of the family business, Domenico (nicknamed in the village PACENA, today one of the brands of the firm) to support Luciano during that period. His experience and wisdom, together with the goodwill and spirit of sacrifice of the grandson, succeeded in compensating the absence of Luigi.

Tempered by the daily sacrifice and strong for of the teachings received, reached the age of majority in 1959, he established the personal business Luciano Contri, converted in 1980 into the firm Contri Spumanti S.p.A., starting the production of sparkling and semi-sparkling wines.
