5 min readDec 4, 2021

Team Bunny is proud to announce a ground-breaking collaboration with the award-winning Trefethen Family Vineyards, powered by Cantata, to create a unique, collectible and tradeable bottling of their award-winning Cabernet Sauvignon, with future plans to expand to other bottlings and then on to other brands, products and experiences!

The Bunny X Trefethen collab is the first drop of our real-world NFT’s, and will usher in a new era of trading and delivery of real assets using the Cantata NFT 2.0 platform. We are extremely proud to be working with Trefethen Family Vineyards to drop the first “real-world” NFT’s that are explicitly designed to operate as tradeable investments in fine wine.

Exclusively on the BSC!

We are also equally proud to be bringing you NFT 2.0 on the Binance Smart Chain! We are firmly committed to working with Binance to make the BSC the preferred blockchain to drop, trade and redeem NFTs 2.0, taking advantage of its greater efficiency, reliability, security, and robustness.

The NFT: The Crypto Heroes Cab Collection

Each of the nine NFTs celebrates the native tokens of the most important and integral blockchain networks in the crypto space, along with the innovative tokens that make up the Bunny ecosystem, and the freshly minted NFT collection. The name of each NFT is also a play on wine vintage nomenclature.

Please enjoy a short preview of the Crypto Heroes Cab v.BNB NFT:

The Wine and Bottle: The World’s Best Cabernet

  • The World’s Best Cabernet, Trefethen’s exceptional 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon beat out over 18,000 other wines to be declared “Best in Show” at the Decanter 2021 World Wine Awards, the largest blind tasting in the world
  • This repeats Trefethen’s “Best in Show” for their 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon last year, when that wine rose through a field of over 16,500 wines to win the tasting’s highest honor
  • This special collection of nine one-of-one bottles of Trefethen’s 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon feature iconic cryptocurrency tokens on the label, as well as our freshly minted NFT.

How to Obtain the Bunny X Trefethen NFT and the World’s Best Cabernet

  • Our ground-breaking Bunny X Trefethen NFTs will be minted via an auction system.
  • The winning bids will get one of 9 Ultra-Rare NFTs which are linked to unique bottles with your unique NFT art as their labels!
  • REDEEM your NFT on Cantata to take physical, real-world custody of your unique 1-of-1 NFT labeled bottle of Trefethen’s World’s Best Cabernet.
