The Story
The Gene. The original 2001 label did not have the name Oseleta, instead it said only Oz. ”O” is the first letter of the grape and suggests the shape of a berry, while the “Z” referred to Zýmē and at the same time hinted at the second letter of the variety, which is written with an “s” but pronounced as a “z.” The 2008 label was the first to bear the complete name, Oseleta, because Zýmē achieved the quality goal it set for itself.
