Fabio Gea, Nebbiolo DNAss 2019

Vinous Reverie Notes
The third wine in Fabio "ass" series (along with Cul Otte and Back Grin), this wine's label has hints of blue on the logo's sickle and the letters "ss" after DNA. This is a subtle hint to the wine's unique vinification in water. Though all of Fabio's bottles ask you to consider re-using them, DNAss has a special message written in blue: "Better to re-use peacefully." Fabio says this wine was "f___ing in the pool for four months (water and wine making love)." The wine is bottled in old Travaglini Gattinara bottles Fabio found in an old warehouse. The number of the bottle and the total number of bottles are hand written on labels made from handmade paper. There is an elaborate code on each label that we break down in Fabio's producer profile.
