Fabio Gea Vino Rosso DNAss 2022

Country: Italy

Region: Piemonte

Color/Style: Red

Grapes: Maybe Nebbiolo (Fabio doesn`t want to say)

Fun facts:

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 "fucking 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.

Winemaking:

The grapes are destemmed and macerated for two to three weeks. Fermented and aged in homemade porcelain and stoneware vessels submerged in a pool of water.
