Jose Pariente Apasionado Dulce White wine
Jose Pariente Apasionado Dulce 2022 is a unique sweet white wine that showcases the innovative spirit of Bodegas José Pariente . Crafted from Sauvignon Blanc grapes sourced from one of the first Sauvignon Blanc vineyards established in Rueda over 30 years ago, this wine is the result of meticulous experiments and small vinifications aimed at creating a distinct, vibrant example of the varietal.
The vineyard's soil, characterized by a platform of round pebbles and limestone outcrops at higher elevations, contributes to the complexity and depth of flavor in the wine. To achieve low yields, a sprawl pruning method is employed alongside various pruning techniques, ensuring that the grapes maintain incredible freshness and develop a concentrated flavor profile. The emphasis on obtaining overripe grapes is complemented by a careful selection process, allowing for a surprising balance of high acidity even after extended ripening.
In the winery, a very low-temperature maceration preserves the primary aromas, followed by a gentle pneumatic pressing. The wine undergoes five months of meticulous lees work, which enhances its structure and mouthfeel. After clarification, it is treated with cold and filtered to ensure purity.
Visually, Jose Pariente Apasionado Dulce presents a pale yellow hue with greenish reflections. Its aromatic profile is remarkable for a sweet wine, blending notes of fresh cut grass with exotic fruits and a subtle mineral touch. On the palate, it offers a velvety and refined sensation. This wine retains the characteristic elegance of Sauvignon Blanc, highlighting a fresh, clean profile that is both intense and structured, with impressive persistence.
With its perfect harmony of acidity, alcohol, and sweetness, this sweet wine surprises with its freshness, making it an exceptional choice to pair with desserts, as well as an ideal accompaniment for appetizers and meals. Enjoy the versatility and delightful experience that Jose Pariente Apasionado Dulce 2022 has to offer.
