Color Riot | Meet the Artist, Gino Belassen

Nevermind Rosé is a lip-smacking wine with a ton of personality and flavor. For this Postino-exclusive wine, we collaborated with contemporary, Phoenix artist Gino Belassen to dream up a label that hasn’t been seen in the wine world. Gino’s work is grounded in storytelling—his desire to subtly communicate a tale, thought, or feeling through playful and sometimes irreverent means. Get to know more about Gino and his work with our interview in his Phoenix studio.
