Product details
Fabio Gea Cul Otte is a highly individual creation from Fabio Gea, a former geologist working near Barbaresco in Piedmont, where his deep understanding of land and soil shapes every decision. Sourced from organically grown Nebbiolo cultivated on clay and limestone slopes, this bottling reflects a raw, hands-on philosophy that favors natural expression and minimal intervention. The grapes are gently handled and allowed to develop at their own pace in handcrafted stoneware and porcelain vessels made by Gea himself, highlighting purity, texture, and place. Presented in reclaimed Travaglini bottles with handmade labels, Cul Otte stands as a thoughtful, artisanal expression that bridges tradition, creativity, and respect for nature.
In the glass, it shows a bright, medium ruby hue with clear definition. The aroma reveals fresh red fruits, wild berries, and classic Nebbiolo floral notes that feel lifted and precise. On the palate, it is juicy and energetic, with vibrant acidity, finely textured tannins, and a subtle mineral edge that adds depth and balance. The finish is clean and refreshing, making it an excellent companion to richly flavored dishes such as braised meats, game, aged cheeses, or traditional Italian favorites like agnolotti del plin and osso buco alla milanese.
