Situated in the heart of Valpolicella Classica, the ancient sandstone quarry, tracing its origins back to the 15th century, serves as a testament to the deep bond between Zýmē’s ethos and its local terroir. This underground complex, exuding a unique and captivating genius loci, bridges the gap between tradition and innovation, seamlessly connecting the past with the future. As a convergence point of nature, culture, and history, the quarry stands as the foundational cornerstone of Zýmē, its physical structure hewn from natural stone, a mystical cavern where the wines undergo maturation year after year before reaching their ultimate expression in the bottle.

TASTING NOTES
Bright and rich ruby red in colour, developing garnet highlights over time. This wine has a velvety viscosity due to its high glycerine content. It presents a complex tapestry of fruit, floral, and earthy mineral notes that intertwine gracefully. The overall impression is one of rich complexity, with a blend of fruits, spices, and a touch of higher alcohol complemented by hints of fruit preserves, forest floor, pipe tobacco, cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. These flavours are enhanced by a mineral undertone that showcases the remarkable depth of the wine. The experience culminates in a long finish with a delightful touch of sweetness.
