TOP DOWN. HEATER ON. WE’RE GOING COASTAL. 🌊 To close out September, Camp Vini is loading up the convertible and pointing it toward the Pacific. We’re cruising the California coast, where the water is freezing, the fog has a mind of its own, the earth occasionally moves beneath your feet, and all the geological chaos that makes coastal California such a fascinating place to grow grapes. And the vines? They love the drama. We’ll follow them through fog, fault lines, mountains, valleys, cold ocean air, and one extremely long coastline to see how California’s geography gets translated into the glass. No sunscreen required. Sweater recommended. Trusty compass encouraged. Wine provided. CRUISING COASTAL CALIFORNIA Fog, Fault Lines & the Vine Wednesday, September 30th Two seatings — 5:30 & 8:00 Paperboy East 🎟️ Tickets at the link in bio.

Well, that was a pretty good summer vacation. 🏕️🍷 Last month, Mediterranean State of Mind took us island-hopping around the Med without anyone having to find their passport. We drank some very good wine. Ate some very good snacks. Learned a thing or two. Got a little loud. Made some new friends. Caught up with some old ones. And judging by the number of glasses in the air, we’d say camp was a success. But vacation is over, campers. It’s time to go back to school. And naturally, we’re starting at the very beginning. For Excavating Happy Hour, we’re digging a few thousand years into the past to figure out how this whole wine thing got started: ancient winemaking in the Caucasus, buried vessels, trade routes, wandering grapes, and the people who decided somewhere along the way that crushed fruit + time = we should probably invite some friends over. Turns out, wine has been giving people an excuse to gather around a table for a very, very long time. And that’s the part of the story we’re especially fond of. Because class by class, Camp Vini is becoming less about simply showing up to taste six wines and more about who keeps showing up to taste them with us. We’re building a funny little wine camp here in Austin. There are familiar faces. There are brand-new ones. There are increasingly questionable camp traditions. And there’s always another chair at the table. Come pull one up. 🏺 Excavating Happy Hour 🍷 Wednesday 8/19 ⏰ 5:30 & 8pm 📍 Paperboy East 🎟️ Tickets through the link in bio No prerequisites. Questionable pronunciation encouraged. 🏕️

Turns out, happy hour has been around for a while. About 8,000 years, give or take. This month at Camp Vini, we’re heading back to the birthplace of wine to explore the traditions that shaped every glass that followed. From buried clay vessels to ancient grape varieties, we’ll trace the story of wine through six bottles rooted in some of the world’s oldest winemaking cultures. No dusty history lesson. Just good wine, good people, and a story that’s been unfolding for eight millennia. 🏕️ Excavating Happy Hour Digging into 8,000 years of wine. 🍷 Wednesday, August 19 ⏰ Two seatings: 5:30 PM & 8:00 PM 📍 Paperboy East Grab your spot through the link in our bio.

ANNOUNCING 8/14-8/16 Il Brutto, La Fina With… @erind_f of @ilbruttoaustin & up and coming @casafina.atx A 9 course Mediterranean Conversation between Il Brutto and Casa Fina Before Casa Fina officially opens its doors to Austin, Midnight in the Garden invites you to pull up a chair for an exclusive first taste, served at twilight. At the center of this evening is Chef Erind Halilaj, whose culinary story began in Albania, took shape in the bustling kitchens of Italy, and eventually carried him across Europe and the United States. As Executive Chef of Il Brutto, Erind has refined a style rooted in tradition, thoughtful creativity, and a deeply held belief that exceptional ingredients should be treated honestly—and always served with genuine hospitality. Now, that journey enters its next chapter. For this limited engagement, Chef Erind brings Il Brutto and the forthcoming Casa Fina together at one table. Moving from the regional cooking of Italy into a spirited, sun-drenched exploration of Spain, the multi-course menu will reveal the ingredients, techniques, and traditions these neighboring cultures share—as well as the places where they beautifully disagree. Expect an evening where the black-and-white, fountain-wading romance of Fellini meets the saturated color, sly sensuality, and electric emotion of Almodóvar. What unfolds is a conversation of fire and salt, restraint and abundance, old-world memory and modern Austin imagination. This is not fusion for fusion’s sake. It is the story of a chef shaped by movement, curiosity, and the joy of gathering: two culinary languages, one Mediterranean spirit, and an intimate glimpse of what Chef Erind is creating next. Seating is intentionally limited. Come meet Casa Fina before the rest of Austin does. Link in bio to reserve ✨

Around here, we don’t hand out VIP wristbands. We hand out camp sashes. They aren’t for sale, and you don’t get one on your first day at camp. But when you do- Slip it on, grab a glass, and find a seat. Wear it to your next class. Collect a few stories. Maybe a splash or two of wine. (It builds character.) A Camp Vini sash means you’ve found your way back. You’ve shared a few tables, discovered a few new favorites, and become part of the story we’re building together. It’s a small tradition, but one we hope you’ll be proud to earn. Because around here, everyone who comes to camp belongs at camp. 🏕️🍷

We spend a lot of time choosing the wines. But somewhere between the first pour and the last glass, the wine stops being the point. Conversations start. Tables merge. Someone inevitably says, “Wait…you have to try this.” Camp Vini has always been about creating a place where curious people can gather around a bottle and leave with a few new favorite wines—and hopefully a few new friends too. That’s camp. 🍷🏕️
