Discover "Librottiglia": Italian Book-Bottles Making Waves Since 2016

Librottiglia: An Italian Invention

Launched by the design agency Reverse Innovation in collaboration with Italian designer Matteo Corregia, the "Librottiglia" project—blending the Italian words "libro" (book) and "bottiglia" (bottle)—offers a unique experience of reading and tasting. Each bottle features a small booklet bound with string, and the labels unfold into a few pages of a short story that you can enjoy while sipping on Italian wine from the Piedmont region.

3 Bottles, 3 Authors

The project includes contributions from three distinct Italian writers. In "L’Omicidio" ("The Murder"), journalist and satirist Daniel Zanilli presents a thrilling detective story that pairs with the fresh and invigorating white wine "Roero Arneis." Singer Patricia Liquidera offers a different genre with her whimsical fable "La Rana nella Pancia" ("The Frog in the Stomach"), matched with the sparkling red wine"Branchetto L’Anthos." Finally, the Nebbiolo Romero bottle, paired with the love story "Ti ami Dimenticami" ("Love Me. Forget Me") by cultural producer Regina Marques Nadaes, completes the collection.

Please note that the stories are available only in Italian, so you'll need to speak the language to fully enjoy this literary-wine experience (or perhaps this is a chance to learn?).
