The menu stops being a game of roulette

Carta de Vinho: the end of the cold sweat.

You sit down at the restaurant, open the list and… names in French, prices from another dimension and a waiter standing by. We’re going to put an end to that moment: with real wine lists, rated by the people who paid the bill.

The counters are open: send in your wine list. The first lists we publish will come from what arrives here.

HOW CARTA DE VINHO WORKS ↓

Live nowReal wine lists, photographed

The community photographs the wine list wherever they ate. You look up the restaurant before you sit down, and arrive knowing what to expect.

Live nowFair price or daylight robbery?

The same bottle costs R$ 60 at the supermarket and R$ 240 at the table? The community flags it. Transparency stings whoever overcharges.

Live nowOwn a restaurant? Join in

Restaurants send in their own wine list to be published, for free, with the badge of those who aren’t afraid to show their prices.

PilotWe’re starting with Rio de Janeiro

The city where the bill is scariest. A good wine list from another city gets in too: we’ll open up that city.

THE HOUSE BADGES ↓

A badge can’t be bought — it’s earned. The community validates, the house stamps it, the restaurant shows it off with pride:

Rolha Livre badge (free corkage) — **ROLHA LIVRE**free corkage: bring your own wine, no fee

Preço Justo badge (fair price) — **PREÇO JUSTO**fair price: honest markup, validated

Carta Aberta badge (prices in plain sight) — **CARTA ABERTA**open list: prices in plain sight, no fear

THE TWO COUNTERS ↓
