The soul of Robert Mondavi Winery—inspired by founder Robert Mondavi—is that of a creator, visionary, and innovator. With these shared characteristics and the desire to create something truly revolutionary, Robert Mondavi Winery and legendary French porcelain house Bernardaud have created a limited series of Limoges porcelain magnum (1.5L) bottles, each a handcrafted sculpture. In a nod to the year Robert Mondavi Winery was established, the collection features 1,966 bottles, each an original creation inspired by Robert Mondavi Winery's vineyards, wines and iconic winery, and each one taking 50 specialized craftsmen nearly two weeks to create. The result is stunning design and perfect functionality in a single vessel.
The MCMLXVI Collection
Robert Mondavi Winery has forged a first of its kind partnership with French luxury porcelain house Bernardaud to revolutionize the world of wine collecting and authentication. In a nod to the year the winery was established, the collection is titled "MCMLXVI" and features a limited series of 1,966 exquisitely designed limoges porcelain in 1.5L bottles. The Magnums hold custom wine blends created by the acclaimed winemakers Robert Mondavi Winery Technical Council-Geneviève Janssens, Thomas Rivers Brown and Andy Erickson-and are sourced from the iconic To Kalon® Vineyard in Napa Valley. Each bottle will be offered exclusively through generative art non fungible tokens (NFTs), each a unique and collectible piece of art.



Generative Art
Clay Heaton is a generative artist and data scientist from Raleigh, North Carolina. Working in public health, video game development, and marketing throughout his career, he drew on his skills with data transformation and modeling in creating his artworks. Having launched various projects in the NFT space, he has been making digital art since 2005. Heaton created beautiful algorithmically generated artworks for each bottle, drawing traits from the bottles and wines themselves, such as tasting notes, mouthfeel, aroma, color, and body. The owner of the NFT will receive an exceptional wine, one of a kind bottle, and a unique artwork made specifically for that wine. They will all be linked via the NFT and authenticated with blockchain technology.
FAQs
An NFT, or non-fungible token, is a unique identifiable digital asset stored on the blockchain. An NFT could be a piece of digital artwork, a collectible, or even a digital representation of a real-life physical asset. Ownership of an NFT is easily and uniquely verifiable due to its public listing on the blockchain.
Each unique digital token in this collection is a piece of generative artwork inspired by both the wine bottles and the wine blends themselves, incorporating details like tasting notes, mouthfeel, aroma, color, and body into the generative traits of each unique NFT. The result will be completely original digital works of art — spectacular in their own right, while also acting as a “key” that unlocks redemption of the physical wine bottles for shipping from 9/30/22 through 1/31/23.
Both the NFT and wine collector communities thrive on authenticity, traceability and ownership,
so a pairing of the two through this unique offering is a natural progression that offers exciting
possibilities and foreshadows the future of collectorship, where blockchain technology sets the standard for provenance.
If you are using Shop Pay (i.e. an express checkout method) and want to pay with ETH, you will have to "Check out as guest" to select a new payment method. Alternatively, you can change your card and select “alternative payment options”. From there you will see the Coinbase Commerce option.
Once the NFT has been purchased (or “minted”), you will be able to see your NFT on OpenSea or other Ethereum-based NFT marketplaces. You can simply connect your digital wallet to the marketplace, which “signs you in,” and then browse the NFT(s) in your wallet through the marketplace’s interface.
Wine will be shipped only to a valid U.S. address not located in an Ineligible Address State (as defined below) and to recipients who are at least 21 years old. No shipments of wine shall be made to addresses outside of the U.S. or where prohibited or restricted by local law (for example, in jurisdictions that prohibit direct to consumer shipment of wine or that require licenses that Issuer does not hold) (each, an “Ineligible Address”). Currently, the following are Ineligible Address States: Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah and West Virginia. The person to whom the wine is shipped is responsible for ensuring that they are eligible to receive the wine.
Once the wines are ready on 9/30/2022, they will be claimable through 1/31/23. Token holders as of 9/30/2022 can use their NFT to claim their previously chosen limited-edition wine bottle by visiting https://nft.robertmondaviwinery.com, connecting their digital wallet, and then providing or confirming the correct address for shipping.

Buyers will be asked to submit their address upon purchasing the NFT.

The buyer of the NFT will receive a unique generative artwork based on the traits of the specific wine they choose, as well as a hand-crafted porcelain bottle of wine. Each NFT also includes a certificate that may be redeemed for one To Kalon Tasting for up to (4) guests beginning from 9/30/2022 and ending 9/29/2023 (the “To Kalon Tasting Period”).

The best way to prevent a lost wallet or wallet address is to make numerous physical copies of your seed phrase (“Secret Recovery Phrase”) and to store these copies in safe places you know and trust. Unfortunately, if you forget your password and lose all copies of your seed phrase, not much can be done to recover your wallet. Never share your password or your seed phrase with anyone, and please ensure to keep it safe.
