2023 Limited Edition
by Noma Bar
I had never created a wine label or worked with augmented reality, but challenges like the one Banfi proposed to me are the ones that fascinate me the most. I wanted to combine my style with the world of La Pettegola, imagining an encounter between women who reveal their passions, dreams and secrets over a glass of wine. Their emotions, as well as the details of La Pettegola, are “hidden in plain sight”: the amazement created by looking closer is what makes design and life, after all, so special.
Banfi presents: La Pettegola by Noma Bar
A golden chalice, a sleek bottle, a bird spreading its wings. Noma Bar transforms the symbols that characterise La Pettegola into distinctive images.The presentation event
The 2023 limited edition of La Pettegola was unveiled during a special event that took place in Milan on 30 January 2023 in the intimate and informal setting of the Frida Bar. We were accompanied by the artists who created the previous versions of the limited edition of Vermentino Banfi.
