🍷 Carnation Capital SPV 1 | Closes Apr 1 | 20%+ IRR
Given the horror show topline numbers in the wine space lately, I was skeptical about this one at first.
But this week, I dove into the numbers, and while investment-grade bottles are pennies on the pound in 2025, the area Carnation focuses on is super robust, actually.
I’m speaking with the GP this coming week and will have more for y’all soon.
🏇🏻 Horse Pinhooking | 40% IRR – Closes April
Distributed due diligence is underway for this exciting opportunity. Special thanks to the many volunteers.
