NDA Wines – What Are They?

Imagine for a second you’re the Director of a Very Expensive Winery.

Each vintage, your winery makes barrel after barrel of incredible wine, but the key to keeping your prestigious place in the pecking order is making sure that there’s always more demand than there is supply.

That way, you have a waiting list for your mailing list. Sommeliers have to fight for tiny allocations. Prices stay high. Your winery continues to embody luxury.

So you bottle a fraction of your production…but what do you do with the rest of the wine?

You need to sell it…but you also need to make sure that no one can trace the wine back to you. You have a brand to protect, after all. That’s where we—and an NDA—come in.

NDA wines are bottles produced by high-end, often cult-status wineries that are sold without revealing the producer’s identity. The “NDA” stands for Non-Disclosure Agreement—the legal contract that prevents us (and you) from publicly identifying which winery made the wine.

Our wine team has spent years building relationships with prestigious wineries who need a discreet outlet for their “excess” production. These relationships are built on trust, confidentiality, and mutual benefit. The winery gets to move inventory without damaging their brand exclusivity, and we get access to exceptional wines at prices that would make collectors weep with joy.

Because NDA wines carry no brand premium, no marketing costs, and no prestige pricing, you’re paying for what’s actually in the bottle—not the luxury story behind the label. The obvious limitation is mystery: We can’t tell you exactly which winery produced each bottle, though we’ll hint as much as we’re allowed to, with detailed tasting notes, vineyard information, winemaking details—enough context clues for experienced tasters to make educated guesses.

In a world where wine prices seem to climb higher every year, NDA wines offer something increasingly rare: exceptional value without compromise. The only question is whether you’re ready to judge wine by what matters most—not the label on the outside, but the liquid on the inside.
