Pom Pom Owner Pivots to Wine Kits That Include Sexy Playlists and Lube | Eater DC

"Launched by Carlie Steiner to support her staff during the dine-in ban, Seco Wine is an online shop that sells to-go wine packages with a tongue-in-cheek bent: themed collections (like the sold-out “Baby Makin” set and the seven-night “FML” survival kit), shipments of six to 24 bottles that highlight small producers and a range of styles from classic varietals to skin-contact and Pet Nat, plus groceries and prebatched cocktail packs. D.C. orders carry no delivery fee, and offerings range from a $160 trio (Quickie! sauvignon blanc, Send Nudes rosé, and a Casual Encounters Rhône-style blend, packaged with lube, chocolates, and a playlist) to a $250 FML kit with four bottles, a Steiner-made prebatched cocktail, and a customizable cocktail package that makes up to 15 drinks. The site also sells three-bottle “mood” or astrological collections with custom horoscopes and fresh citrus, tabs for wines from Greece, Georgia, and Bolivia, somm-and-friends picks (including a Casey Rath pack promising hidden gems and experimental oddities), cocktail kits (Manhattans, daiquiris, margaritas), and an eclectic food-and-supplies list from lemons and ramps to whole chickens and mixed hardwood; Steiner shares free cocktail recipes on Instagram and uses Venmo tips to buy groceries for her team." - Tierney Plumb
