From my understanding this isnt correct.
While a DNS resolution may or may not be encrypted, which is highly dependent on the local client's environment. Data being sent to apple is not being sent via DNS, as these DNS connections are only the beginning of negotiating a conneciton to Apple's servers.
The connections themselves where data is transfered, are negotiated using TLS and thus encrypted.
The only point where this is not the case would be system probes, such as captive-portal check, OCSP, or NTP, but none of these would be capable of portraying anything more than simple metadata, like your ip address.

They're not, as I said there are quite a few unencrypted ones. Last time I couldn't even set up a HomePod without allowing insecure connections. > but none of these would be capable of portraying anything more than simple metadata, like your ip address. Just the captive portal check alone contains things like the User-Agent, which has plenty more than just your IP.
