Pas Dosé - D'Araprì

With the D'Araprì Pas Dosé, a first-class sparkling wine finds its way into the glass. It reveals a wonderfully bright, light red color. The perlage of this sparkling wine appears in the glass as very fine and extremely persistent. If you give it some air by swirling the glass, you can perceive an excellent balance in this sparkling wine, as it does not appear watery, syrupy, or liqueur-like on the glass walls. This Italian cuvée flatters the nose in the glass with wonderfully refined and complex notes of lemon, peach, apple, and mirabelle. Added to this are hints of gorse.

On the palate, the texture of this well-balanced sparkling wine is wonderfully light, crisp, and creamy. On the finish, this sparkling wine from the Apulia wine-growing region delights with a beautiful length. Once again, hints of lemon and peach appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the limestone- and clay-dominated soils join in.

Vinification of the Pas Dosé from D'Araprì

The basis for the well-balanced Pas Dosé from Italy is grapes from the Bombino Bianco and Pinot Noir varieties. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Apulia. Here, the vines drive their roots deep into soils of clay and limestone. The Pas Dosé is an Old World wine in the best sense of the word, as this Italian exudes an exceptional European charm that clearly underscores the success of wines from the Old World. A not insignificant influence on the ripeness of the harvested grapes is also the fact that the Bombino Bianco and Pinot Noir grapes thrive under the influence of a rather cool climate. This is expressed, among other things, in particularly long and even grape bunches and a rather moderate alcohol content in the wine. After harvesting, the grapes are quickly brought to the press house. There they are sorted and gently crushed. This is followed by the fermentation of the base wines.
