Sun Sister — Monferrato DOC Bianco (13% ABV)
Where light lingers. Born under open skies and shaped by sunlight and shared tables, Sun Sister captures a warmth that feels both familiar and free — the laughter, the pause, the golden hour between day and dusk. This Arneis reflects the generous spirit of Zambelli Wines, inspired by connection, conversation, and time shared with friends and family. Direct pressed, spontaneous primary and malolactic fermentation in stainless steel, Sun Sister is a reflection of sisterhood — the bonds we’re born into and the ones we choose.
