Sono Qui – Zibibbo – 2022

Zibibbo Sono-Qui 2023 „Shimmering golden yellow with greenish reflections On the nose rose petals and nashi pears, gooseberries, a hint of nutmeg and anise, vanilla. On the palate very dense, well-integrated acidity and complex structure, the aromas of rose petals, nashi pears and gooseberries are present, the notes of anise and nutmeg are also easily found, dry, with beautiful fruit sweetness. This wine accompanies the connoisseur for a very long time on the palate until it offers a flattering finish in a finale that lasts well over 30 seconds“ – „Ronaldo Amici – Master Sommelier – WSET L6“

Vinification

Zibibbo Sono-Qui 2023

This is probably one of the most extraordinary Zibibbos ever made.

With minimal yields of less than 2 kilograms per vine, this wine achieves the maximum yield reduction and quality increase.

Made entirely by hand without the use of machines or pumps, this wine is almost untreated (minimal use of sulphur) and produced with an extremely rare and unique spontaneous fermentation to create completely natural wines.

Despite the already low yield, the grapes are subjected to another selection, then 100% hand-stemmed, left on the mash for just under a day and then fermented almost unpressed in steel tanks.

The steel tanks are in a separate cold store to keep the fermentation temperatures as low as possible.

A fermentation temperature of 14-16 degrees ensures a long fermentation and the extraordinary aromas that one can imagine in a Zibibbo
