Each selected through blind tastings at maison vernhes, our farmhouse in the hills of Tuscany.
How we choose our collections
Every three months, we return to maison vernhes for a week of blind tastings.
We pour more than 50 pre-selected wines without labels or reputations. Only what's in the glass matters.
Only the bottles that earn unanimous approval move forward.

How membership works
1. Choose your allocation horizon
1 collection = a constellation of 6 rare wines. Sign up for two, four or six collections.
2. The experience begins
Receive 1 collection every 2 months. Pay for each collection only when it's shipped.
3. Deepen your appreciation
Wines you loved can be reordered at a 10% discount — until they're gone for good.
4. On your terms, always
Every wine carries our word. If a bottle ever misses the mark (or blows your mind), please say so.
What our members say
The wines were so so delish and I saw many happy, bright eyed folks.
I've enjoyed MVA so much! Hand-selected small producers with limited allocations. I can almost feel the effort behind the bottles, and I’m discovering wines I would never find on my own.
We just had the bottle of bubbly that you graciously sent us with our latest shipment of MVA wines - thank you! It was superb.
Drank the Pierre Talayrach last night with Argentinian steak ... wine was outstanding.
I am a complete amateur when it comes to wine. However, a good friend is a wine connoisseur. We opened the bottle of Château Tour Boisée and I decanted it. He was enchanted with the wine — as was I.
The wine subscription has been great and a nice surprise with each new batch.
Where the wine begins
A glimpse into the makers, places, and choices behind each collection.
We work directly with winegrowers and winemakers who value integrity over trends. People who farm with care, respect the vintage, and let the land speak for itself. Pierre Talayrach is one of them.

Meet our founder
mva founder Laurent Vernhes has spent his career finding what others rarely have time to seek. In 2000, he co-founded Tablet Hotels, building it into the world's most respected curated selection of independent hotels — before Michelin acquired it in 2018 to power the official hotel recommendations of the MICHELIN Guide.
Raised as the grandson of a winemaker from Southwest France, Laurent brings that same curatorial instinct to wine. mva and maison vernhes are his way of doing for artisanal producers what he did for independent hotels: shining a light on the exceptional, the undersung, the hard-to-find, and getting them to wine lovers.
