How It Works

Three steps. One rule:
no peeking.

01
Receive the box

Six bottles arrive wrapped and numbered. No labels, no hints — just the tags.

02
Taste without bias

Pour, taste, argue about it. Your impression forms before anyone tells you what it should be.

03
Reveal the story

Scan the tag when you’re ready. The winery, region, story and tasting notes appear.


The Founder

“Taste without the label, make your call, then find out what it is and who made it.”

Where it started


What This Is

Starting small.


We’re starting small so we can get every box right. It isn’t a subscription, and registering costs nothing. Put your name down for the first release; after that, each release is your call.
