FEATURES
The Zyme Kairos 2017 is a truly distinctive red wine from Verona, Italy, known as a unique "Harlequin" blend. This particular vintage showcases a complex composition of 15 grape varieties—11 red and 4 white—all organically grown. The winemaking process is meticulous, involving hand-selection of grapes and a 40-day drying period for some varieties, followed by 30 months of ageing in new French oak barrels and at least two years in bottle.
On the palate, this wine presents an intense ruby-red colour with garnet highlights. It offers a monumental taste, characterised by richness and complexity, with a dense texture. Expect shades of fruit and spices, such as berry jam, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, intermingling with nuances of undergrowth, tobacco, and minerals. The finish is persistent, long, and boasts a convincing sweetness. The aroma is wonderfully voluminous, revealing notes of peony, violet wood, cigar tobacco, candied ginger, vanilla, sandalwood, and tar, alongside ripe cherry, plum, and dark chocolate.
🍴 This versatile red pairs exquisitely with important and exquisite dishes of white and red meats, especially those with rich and spicy sauces. It's also ideal alongside mature cheeses, game dishes, or delicate pasta.
🥂 The Zyme Kairos 2017 is perfect for special occasions, offering a profound experience for those who appreciate complex, multi-layered reds. It's also described as a wine for meditation, inviting thoughtful enjoyment.
