Aquilini Wines, based in Washington’s Columbia Valley, launched the Dixie & Bass label to embody the beauty of opposites attracting. The concept centers around a fictional duo: Dixie, a loyal and grounded dog, and Bass, a free-spirited bird. Their friendship, though improbable, represents the unexpected synergy that can arise when contrasting elements come together.
This theme is woven into the wine’s identity:
-
Dixie symbolizes strength, loyalty, and earthiness.
-
Bass represents lightness, freedom, and vibrancy.
-
Together, they reflect the balance of bold and bright characteristics found in the wine blends.
The label’s storytelling approach aims to evoke emotion and curiosity, making the wine more than just a beverage—it’s a narrative in a bottle
