Opimian’s summer offering of Wines for 2 has been out for a little while now, with an order deadline of August 22nd. All the wines on the offering come from our supplier Paul Sapin in the south of France. Sapin has invested heavily in quality wine production at an affordable price. Wines are sourced from around the world and bottled in their French facilities. This is not the usual Opimian supplier, but the results speak for themselves.
