The Barrel Thief Collective is a collection of limited, non-vintage wines born from the most compelling barrels set aside over the years. Exceptional parcels, remarkable vintages, and wines too intriguing to disappear into the ordinary. Spanning multiple vintages, each irreplicable expression pays homage to Crown + Thieves’ cellar-thieving roots and tells the story of wines that earned a longer life.
