Description

There is all the charm, and style, of a great mountain sparkling wine in this Alto Adige Pas Dosé from Franz Haas. Charm and style that in large part derive from the particular grapes used in its elaboration. In fact, the Pinot Noir used in this Millesimato comes from vineyards located between 750 and 1,150 metres above sea level. Here, climate change has not yet managed to disrupt the rhythms of nature and the soils, mixed between dolomite and porphyry, guarantee an ideal substrate for growing grapes. After harvesting, the grapes are partly crushed whole, while the remaining part is destemmed and then pressed. The first ageing takes place in stainless steel, for six months, and in the spring following the harvest the wine is bottled to begin the draught phase. At that point, the wine remains on the lees for about four years, and six months before it goes on sale, disgorgement takes place. A Pas Dosé of great personality, in the glass it has a brilliant straw yellow colour, with a fine and persistent perlage. It is a pleasantly gastronomic bubble, in the sense that it pairs easily with a variety of situations. However, the producer emphasises: 'since it is pure Pinot Noir, it can never be a wine for everyone, but particularly for those who love this grape variety. On the table, not to be mistaken, we can pair it with first and second courses based on fish. Excellent, however, also with raw seafood, perhaps as an elegant aperitif.
