Sobre la bodega y los vinos

D’Araprì sparkling wines are produced in Capitanata in Puglia, a land that is dry and generous. The fertility of this land is favored by the soil composition, exposure and climate. Given its conformation, this land imposes a limited but great quality production. Capitanata is inclined to the cultivation of vines: it is not subjected to frost, as it is protected by the mountains of Majella and the Gargano Promontory, and the wind does not cause the development of mildews and poor rainfall. The soil is limestone-clay with silt and sand, it has an altitude between 80 and 100 m., and a slight slope, it is usually very sunny and its temperature has small variations during the day. The well-endowed lands with limestone and organic matter have a high water capacity, allowing a regular ripening of the grapes. On these grounds the grapes grow slowly, without sudden jerks, avoiding reduction of acidity degree and loss of aromatic components.

La calidad del vino nace primero en el viñedo: al mejor vino, de hecho, se llega con uvas perfectamente maduras, producidas a partir de cepas seleccionadas en función de las condiciones climáticas y del suelo de la zona donde van a crecer, cultivadas con el cuidado y la pasión que dedican a un jardín, para obtener lo mejor. El objetivo de calidad parte de la uva "pergola pugliese" cultivada con una densidad de 3.500 sarmientos por hectárea. Esta baja proporción permite un mayor contenido de azúcar (que no es esencial para la elaboración de un vino base) y sobre todo cambia la proporción entre la malia y el ácido tartárico, lo más importante para un vino base muy fino con un pH bajo.
