Scenes From The Pinocchio Tale
Twelve different pencil sketches were developed for the label of Dievole's Pinocchio Nero d' Avola .
We show you six.
Originally, the plan was to release one label at a time,
creating a "collect them all" scenario.
However, when the labels were sent to the bottling plant the instructions were lost,
so they were all bottled at one time.
You never know what will be in each case,
with the exception of the wonderful wine!
2003 Pinocchio Nero d' Avola from Sicily
Pretty, soft and supple red,
each label has a different scene from the fable of Pinocchio!
Nice grilling wine.
"A glass half empty is indeed half full, but half a lie will never be half the truth"
