Twenty-five members. By application.
You probably already have a cellar. What you don’t have is a thirty-minute call each month with a winemaker who knows your palate, your calendar, your taste in dinner guests.
You want the wines that aren’t on any website. You want to put a custom label on a bottle for your sixtieth. You want to know, before anyone else, when the next retreat date is set.
This is that tier.
Private tastings on the estate, the cantina after hours, the vineyard at the edge of sunset.
Every month, your call. Mindful tasting. Sensory exercises. Wine journey coaching. Questions that have been sitting with you. Thirty minutes is long enough to matter and short enough that you’ll both be ready for the next one.
Bottles from Terralsole that are not on the website and not at the tasting room. Vertical allocations, magnums, library Riservas, pre-release.
Design a label for a Terralsole wine. Minimum 48 bottles. Three revisions included. Shipped at a 15% member discount.
All wines, all retreats, always. Up from 10% in the Tuscan Table.
You see retreat dates before they go public. You book before anyone else.
Separate from the Vivanti at large. Direct access to Athena. Small, quiet, generous.
Once per membership year. A night on the estate, a tasting for two, breakfast with a view of the Val d’Orcia.
Athena on one screen. You on the other.
Some calls are tastings, she walks you through a wine you’ve just opened, a vintage you’re curious about, a bottle you’re about to serve at a dinner party. Some calls are coaching, sensory awareness exercises, Mediterranean living guidance, the question you’ve been sitting with. Some calls are just a conversation between two people who both happen to care deeply about wine.
By the third month, Athena knows your palate better than most people in your life. That is the point.
A standout vintage of the last two decades. Limited allocation. Drinking beautifully now, capable of another fifteen years.
InquireThe 2010 vintage is often called the vintage of a generation. Our Riserva is the most restrained and long-lived wine we have made.
InquireMagnum format. Peak condition. Built for a table of twelve and a night that deserves it.
InquireThe 2007 in magnum. The vintage Athena serves at her own table on important occasions.
InquireChoose your wine, Brunello, Riserva, Rosso, Trio. Design your label with our team: three revisions included, Italian printers, archival paper. Minimum order forty-eight bottles. Shipped at the Inner Circle 15% discount.
Most custom labels happen for milestone birthdays, weddings, company anniversaries, and retirements. A few happen for no reason at all except that the person wanted them.
The monthly call is the most expensive hour of my month. It is also, by a wide margin, the most useful.

Athena can give thirty minutes a month to twenty-five people. Twenty-six would break the promise.
The cap is not a marketing device. It is the math of a real relationship, practiced monthly, over years.
Seats open when members step down, change tiers, or, occasionally, when Athena invites a new Vivante directly.
I came for the wine. I stayed because my calls with Athena are the one place I’m not the expert in the room. That kind of rest is rare.
