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 White "From Black to White" by Zymé is, as the Venetian winery likes to define it, "the wine that wasn't there." Due to a quirk of nature, it underwent a genetic mutation from the natural Rondinella red grape variety to a white grape. However, it's not only Rondinella Bianco that contributes to the creation of this intriguing white wine; it also incorporates Gold Traminer, Kerner, and Incrocio Manzoni.
