In September we accompanied a group of content creators and lifestyle journalists to discover the project signed by Alessandro Salvano in Montelupo Albese. DWNL®, an acronym for Drink Wines, not Labels, is not only the name of the brand but also the manifesto chosen by Alessandro for the wine journey started in 2019. The style is clear from the start: Alessandro wants to interpret his great passion for Burgundy and he does so by vinifying Nebbiolo whole cluster, using only indigenous yeasts, without clarification or filtration and with low amounts of sulfites.  Four years and five vintages later, dwnl® presented new vintages of the classics produced in the Langa and some international contamination: Nebbiolo, Dolcetto, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. An afternoon among the vineyards, which give life to these wines born outside the boundaries, beyond the rules and schemes of the Disciplinaries, culminated with a tasting among the rows at sunset and followed by dinner in Barolo, at Petti’t Bistot, under the imposing walls of the Castle. Here surprise Chef Chef Gabriele Boffa – from the Michelin 1- starred La Locanda del Sant’Uffizio Restaurant in Penango – graced guests with his creations paired with the special selection of wines curated by Salvano. It was a journey where we tried to abandon schemes and preconceptions to let ourselves be carried away by pure wine passion, which does not let itself be influenced by the label.
