Zymé Il Bianco - From Black To White

Vintage: 2018
Description: The name Zýmē, from Greek, means "yeast." Yeast is, of course, an indispensible element in the world of oenology, but it also bears a symbolic meaning, since it conjures up the concept of naturalness, a fundamental value in Celestino Gaspari's professional and existential journey, as well as the process of fermenting, understood as a continuous striving towards transformation. In harmony with that philosophy, the winery logo represents a grapevine leaf in which is centred a pentagon, symbol of the five basic elements that combine to yield wine: man-vine-earth-sun-water. The minimalist label plays on the black/white contrast, alluding to the natural genetic mutation undergone by the Rondinella grape, from red grape to white. Destemming and crushing, controlled fermentation in concrete tanks for 20 days. Minimum 6 months of sur lies maturation with weekly bâtonnage. Color is luminous, with greenish and pale yellow highlights. Impressive
