A Revolutionary Approach in the Wine Industry: NFT Wine Allocations
Step into the world of Château EDMUS, a cutting-edge estate located in Saint Emilion, France. Led by Laurent David, a passionate winegrower and President of La WineTech, Château EDMUS is introducing a groundbreaking concept in the industry: the distribution of its wine through NFT wine allocations within the exclusive EDMUS Club. By embracing this innovative approach, Château EDMUS aims to meet the increasing demand for its exceptional rare wines while continuously engaging its customer base.
Unlocking the Potential of NFT Allocations
Since its acquisition in 2019, this rare wine produced from a 1.6-hectare parcel in the legendary Saint Emilion region has gained recognition and acclaim from critics for its exceptional quality and uniqueness. The PHi cuvée, made from old Cabernet Franc vines grown biodynamically, has been ranked among the top 10 “most attractive Bordeaux grands crus of the moment” by iDealWine. To cater to the growing demand, Château EDMUS will make its wines exclusively available to new subscribers through NFT wine allocations. The registration list is already open at www.chateauedmus.com.
NFTs will be sold on a dedicated marketplace.
Embrace a New Era of Wine Appreciation
Laurent David, the visionary owner of Château EDMUS, has chosen this method to empower customers to directly purchase a fixed number of bottles each year from the producer. Each vintage of the Grand Cru, aged for a minimum of 5 years in the estate’s cellars, becomes available for sale. The innovative wine allocations system at Château EDMUS allows selected wine enthusiasts to become members of the prestigious Club EDMUS and acquire the exclusive vintage of the year. Club membership offers numerous benefits, including access to rare vintages, estate visits, and even voting rights on important matters. These membership cards will be digitized and produced as NFTs, ensuring secure wine storage, traceability, and easy resale.
Three card categories are available:
- The Magnum card: entitles the holder to a maximum wine allocation of one case of 24 bottles each year at a 15% discount.
- The Jeroboam card: entitles the holder to a maximum wine allocation of one case of 12 bottles each year at a 10% discount.
- The Balthazar card: allows you to obtain a maximum wine allocation of one case of 6 bottles each year at a 5% discount.
