We’re excited to support this initiative as it allows our community of OMBLES to get involved in a great cause and have complete freedom to be creative.
You can even name it ANYTHING you want!!!
We can’t wait to see the results of this one!!!
Let your mind go free. Don’t think “wine world”. Think “your” world, and how you’d want to drink it. Don’t worry about the quality, what’s inside is already extraordinary. Design a label you’d be proud to open with friends and family. Something that will make celebrating the end of this year remarkable. Because to be honest, we will all need bubbles to kiss this year goodbye.
Remember to keep it positive though. Nothing political or Covid related please!
Tweet your entries to @OneMinuteBriefs and @SfrisoWinetime with the hashtag #The6000Project
The labels are roughly square in format so please share your entries in this way.
We will take the 10 ten chosen entries over from OMB to our final voting on The 6000 Project.
The top ten entrants all win a case of Prosecco because we love to share and honestly, winning beats whining.
Final voting, also open to the general public, will happen on The 6000 Project website: www.the6000project.com between July 27 and August 6, 2020.
The top 3 will also receive cash prizes, with a potential €7000 overall up for grabs!!
The more people buy, the higher the reward for the winning designer and 2nd and 3rd runners-up. Full details here.
About:
Global woes left us, a family-owned micro-winery in Northeast Italy, with a canceled order of 6000 unlabelled bottles of our sparkling Prosecco. Our importer’s distribution fell through thanks to Covid-19, leaving us with a 1000-cases-of-wine problem to solve. That is 6000 bottles of Prosecco. No labels. No homes to call their own.
2020 has wreaked havoc on so many of us. But, as a small winery, we still have to figure out what to do with all this sparkling wine. We had three choices. Count it as a loss. Drink it. Lord knows we’ve tried! Or try something different.
So we are opening it up to you, the creatives of the world.
To design the front label. Get as many people to vote as possible. And get the word out so people pre-order cases of these 6000 bottles of Prosecco.

What’s in the bottle?
A lot of happiness, refreshing bubbles, and very little chemicals. That's right, we only use biological products and don't use herbicides in our vineyards. What you get is pure joy straight from our vineyard.
We believe that sometimes a glass of wine can fix a bad mood. That it can ease difficult situations. It can help enhance the flavors of a great meal. It can be the best companion after a hard day - it doesn’t talk back! - and a great way to express happiness. But most importantly, it is the best fuel for great conversations that connect people.
All these things are in every bottle of our Prosecco.
The Wine: That Awesomeness That Will Make You Happy
The sparkling wine inside these 6000 bottles is a refined and elegant Long Charmat Method Prosecco DOC Extra Dry with 8 months of refermentation.
At Sfriso Winery, we use our own grapes to make our wines. As with almost everything we do, this Prosecco is also unconventional.
Quality Classification: Prosecco DOC Spumante Extra Dry
Grapes: 100% Glera grapes from a single vineyard owned by Sfriso Winery
Production Area: Chiarano, in the Province of Treviso, Italy
Alcohol Content: 11,5% vol.
Sugar Residue: 13 gr/l
Bottle Pressure: 5,5 bars
Bottle size: 0,75 l
Ideal Consumption Period: 2020/2022

Fun fact: according to the Prosecco DOC Consortium, the quality control body for Prosecco DOC, at least through the end of last year, they were not aware of any Prosecco producer in Italy who was also creating such long-term Charmat method Prosecco DOC.
