The Carpe Vinum collection is an ever-changing offering of wines that are just about to sell out; one last opportunity to seize a range of selections before they disappear from our shelves forever. Maybe it’s the last few bottles before the next vintage arrives, or a rare bottling we got so little of in the first place that we weren’t able to share it in the newsletter or in an email.
Currently, you’ll find a ruby-colored southern Rhône rosé from Tavel, a pure and explosively aromatic expression of Corsica’s native Biancu Gentile grape, Massimo Benevelli’s effervescent Fresia, one of the Saint-Chinian’s most fascinating and delicious blancs, and Domaine d’Aupilhac’s old-vine Carignan—all priced to encourage new discoveries or revisit old favorites. We will continue to update this collection regularly as wines sell out, so check back often!

Wines In The Collection
Vignai da Duline Italy | Friuli
Lovely now with a slight chill, their Refosco has a stimulating, stony backbone that ensures a slow evolution through the years.
Gaël Petit France | Southern Rhône
This bears a rich bouquet of wild strawberry, flowers, garrigue, and sweet spices, culminating in a long, stony finale.
Tenuta Anfosso Italy | Liguria
170-year-old own-rooted Rossese Bianco, four days on skins, raised in acacia barrels—a Ligurian heirloom!
Antoine-Marie Arena France | Corsica
If you’re like me, a glass of Corsican Muscatellu sparks visions of evening cheese plates laden with Marcona almonds and gemlike fruits.
Domaine Michel Brégeon France | Loire
This lithe and expressive “orange” wine is an ideal palate-opener with a dry, cleansing finish and a fresh, cooling effect like coastal sage and seaspray.
Deperu Holler Italy | Sardinia
A field blend of Vermentino and other native Sardinian grapes, one week maceration; deep, broad, savory, and salty
Steiger-Kalena Italy | Molise
Offers an absolutely electric perfume loaded with bright notes of pomegranate, sour cherry, and fresh strawberry, while the palate delivers bracing acidity and a chiseled, chalky finish.

50th Anniversary Merchandise
