“You have to admire Celestino Gaspari, owner and winemaker of Zymé, because he’s a man that marches to the beat of no one else’s drum but his own. He is also a visionary, one who’s unafraid of experimentation and technology, and he holds himself to the highest standards, which he also expects from his team. The wines can seem modern (or internationally styled), at times unabashedly so, but they are also revelations, incredibly unique and highly enjoyable. Celestino Gaspari doesn’t need to fall back on his experience working with GIuseppe Quintarelli, in fact, it seems almost silly to even mention it these days, as the man has created a style all his own. You’ll find the classics in the range; Valpolicella, Valpolicella Superiore, Amarone and Amarone Riserva, and they all perform at the top of their categories. In fact, the Riserva has ranked among my top wines of the region for two years in a row now.” – Eric Guido, Vinousmedia
Zymé winery, which in Greek means “yeast”, is located in an ancient sandstone quarry dating back to 1400 AD, in San Pietro in Cariano – the most typical area of Valpolicella.
Today, in his 74 acres of vineyard he produces wines of rare elegance, with an almost obsessive attention to the territory: both great classics, such as Valpolicella and Amarone, as well as “Zymè” varieties ranging from traditional wines, like Valpolicella and Amarone, to the brand new Kayros or Black to White, which also use international grapes.
