With its golden amber colour, it releases intense aromas of almond, figs and dried apricot, enhanced by elegant notes of \u003cstrong\u003eMediterranean scrub\u003c\/strong\u003e such as sage and thyme. On the palate, it is savoury and delicate, enriched by a clear mineral undertone and a long \u003cstrong\u003ebalsamic finish\u003c\/strong\u003e with rosemary. It pairs ideally with foie gras, mature cheeses, sorbets and dark chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are grown in Pantelleria, Sicily, in the renowned plots of Contrada Serraglia. The bush-trained vineyards rest on \u003cstrong\u003eterraces with dry-stone walls\u003c\/strong\u003e, a unique environment that results in very low yields per vine. The soils, mainly composed of \u003cstrong\u003evolcanic stones\u003c\/strong\u003e mixed with clay and silt, give the wine a deep mineral character and marked savouriness. A strongly limited annual production encapsulates the authentic expression of the island’s terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe harvest takes place in three stages between August and September, separating fresh grapes for the base wine from bunches destined for \u003cstrong\u003edrying in the sun and wind\u003c\/strong\u003e. The partially dried grapes ferment before the characteristic \u003cstrong\u003einfusion maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e is activated: raisins, destemmed by hand, are gradually immersed in the wine for about three months. This slow process extracts sugars and complex aromas before the wine rests in \u003cstrong\u003estainless steel tanks\u003c\/strong\u003e, preserving the integrity of the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in 2005 from the passion of Carole Bouquet, \u003cstrong\u003ePassito di Pantelleria DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e embodies the volcanic soul of Contrada Serraglia. From the classic terraced vineyards with dry-stone walls, the Zibibbo grapes, grown as bush vines, are harvested in three stages. A meticulous \u003cstrong\u003edrying in the sun and wind\u003c\/strong\u003e and the slow \u003cstrong\u003emaceration by infusion\u003c\/strong\u003e result in a limited production of just 5,000 bottles. This oenological masterpiece, overseen by Donato Lanati, boasts the prestigious 5 Grappoli Bibenda award.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Carole Bouquet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45838444462251,"sku":"59134","price":65.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/carole-bouquet-sangue-d-oro-passito-di-pantelleria-2022_59134_1_fc1b4eff-912e-4894-b3ed-3fcee4bd67bb.webp?v=1773796239"}],"url":"https:\/\/xtriwine.com\/collections\/carole-bouquet.oembed","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
