Wabi-Sabi Wines: Perfectly Imperfect

A perfect wine doesn’t always come in a perfect package.

We’re offering a curated selection of rare, collectible, and back-vintage bottles that may show cosmetic signs of their age—think nicked labels, lightly stained capsules, or minor wear consistent with decades of careful cellaring. In other words: bottles with stories to tell.

Each one has been hand-inspected by our cellar team and noted for transparency, authenticity, and value. And while a few labels may be less than pristine, the wines inside remain nothing short of exceptional.

From iconic estates like DRC, Leroy, Chapoutier, Raveneau, and Harlan to aged rarities like 1978 Aldo Conterno Barolo and 1954 Barbeito Malvasia, this is a chance to own (and drink) some of the world’s most coveted wines—often at a more approachable price.

Every bottle reflects the Benchmark promise: vetted, valued, and ready for your cellar.
