Alchemist’s Daughter — Freisa d’Asti (12% ABV)
Wonder is her work. Transformation is both instinct and art. Alchemist’s Daughter captures the moment when tradition meets imagination. Inspired by the alchemists among us — the healers, chemists, and mystics who shape change with care, our Freisa reflects Zambelli Wines’ curious approach to winemaking — where craft becomes ritual, intuition guides the hand, and care itself is a form of magic.
