Azienda Agricola Sciara x Opak Cellar「From Zero Begins」「From Zero Onwards」(2 bottle set)

From Zero Begins
From Zero Begins tells the legendary journey of Stef Yim.
Starting as a bartender, he first learned how to connect with guests over drinks, then step-by-step pursued winemaking studies in California and France.
He then ventured alone to the foothills of Mount Etna in Sicily, Italy, truly starting from zero—no connections, no background, just his hands and an unyielding spirit.

From planting grapes at 760 meters elevation to now reaching 1,520 meters—the highest vineyard in Europe;
From complete obscurity to today, earning high praise from renowned wine critics and selection by numerous starred hotels and Michelin-starred restaurants.
None of this happened overnight; it was built through harvest after harvest, year after year of persistence.

This wine, From Zero Begins, pays tribute to Stef's journey from nothing to excellence.
As long as you believe in the path you've chosen, charge forward boldly and make it reality.
When you open this bottle, may you remember that every small, authentic beginning deserves to be cherished.

From Zero Onwards
From Zero Onwards isn't just a wine name—it's the story of Opak Cellar these past years.
From wine novices knowing almost nothing, we stumbled through learning, tasting, and listening, gradually earning the trust of our first customers.
Step by step, from being complete unknowns to now having people actively seeking us out for wine purchases and advice—this journey hasn't been glamorous, but every small step has been real and solid.

This wine was specially crafted for Opak by Stef Yim, taking over two years of preparation. It also marks our milestone as Sciara's exclusive agent.
Nothing was handed to us; everything was built bit by bit.
When you open From Zero Onwards, we hope you taste not just Stef's craftsmanship, but also join us in savoring the persistence and courage of starting from zero—and still walking that path today.
