D’Arapri started from the belief of the three friends to produce quality sparkling wine in the South and the intuition – then proved to be successful – to valorize in the "bubbles" the Capitanata’s native grape variety "Bombino bianco". D’Arapri developed thanks to the founder’s business skills and the extraordinary attachment to values of their own terrotory.
This is how Girolamo d’Amico, Louis Rapini and Ulrico Priore have created, in 1979, the popular and renowned production of sparkling wines "d’Araprì" (the mark is given by the first letters of the three surnames readed in sequence). D’Arapri is the only company in Puglia that produces sparkling wines with the classic method, based on fermentation in the bottle, also called method "Champenoise". Read more
