Operational Protocol for Wine Markets
Grapelock is a suite of Solana-native protocols for wine authentication, certification, and compliant settlement — a complete on‑chain foundation for regulated wine markets. (GitHub)
Why Grapelock Exists
The global wine market runs on trust — trust in origin, vintages, certifications, and storage. But the infrastructure behind that trust is brittle, opaque, and easy to manipulate. Grapelock exists to turn that fragile trust into verifiable, programmable trust.
The Problem
- •Counterfeit bottles and forged provenance
- •Siloed certification registries
- •No unified chain‑of‑custody
- •Opaque settlement and escrow
- •Regulatory complexity
The Gap
- •Typical blockchains only tokenize assets
- •Marketplaces focus on listings, not provenance
- •Registries are centralized and closed
- •Escrow is ad-hoc
- •Developers must reinvent the basics
How Grapelock Works
Not just tools. A complete operating system for privacy. Six integrated modules working as one unified defense.
Console
Operational cockpit
Fragmented operational view
One interface for registries, certifications, tokenization, and escrow flows
RegistryLayer
Authenticity & Provenance Core
Counterfeit bottles and falsified origin
A cryptographically anchored registry for vineyards, vintages, and asset batches
CertLogic Engine
Regulatory & Certification Rule Engine
Non‑compliant listings and shipments
Certification and regulatory rules encoded as executable logic on Solana
VintageTokens
Wine Asset Tokenization Module
Double selling, mis‑labeling, and opaque ownership
Clear, programmable representation of real wine inventory on Solana
EscrowVaults
Trust‑Minimized Settlement
Trade defaults, delivery risk, and payment disputes
Programmatic escrow for B2B and institutional trades
TraceGraph
Chain‑of‑Custody & Analytics Graph
Opaque logistics and missing chain‑of‑custody
End‑to‑end visibility into a bottle's journey, from vineyard to glass

The Core Modules
Each module is a specialized privacy layer. Together, they form an impenetrable defense system.
RegistryLayer
Authenticity & Provenance Core
RegistryLayer codifies the real‑world structure of the wine world: vineyard and producer identities, appellation and region metadata, vintages, lots, and bottling runs, with links to certification authorities and inspections.
Key Capabilities:
CertLogic Engine
Regulatory & Certification Rule Engine
Remove traces of past vulnerabilities. CertLogic Engine scans your entire transaction history, identifies dangerous approvals, revokes permissions, and cleans metadata leaks.
Key Capabilities:
VintageTokens
Wine Asset Tokenization Module
Your transactions never reveal your location or patterns. VintageTokens map real‑world inventory through encrypted relay nodes with automatic rotation and latency monitoring.
Key Capabilities:
EscrowVaults
Trust‑Minimized Settlement
Block malicious transactions before they execute. EscrowVaults manages value flows request in real-time, checking against known exploits and permission abuse patterns.
Key Capabilities:
GrapelockCore
Compliance Intelligence
The brain of the entire system. GrapelockCore correlates signals across all modules, analyzes compliance patterns, validates rules, and automatically enforces regulations to protect the network.
Key Capabilities:
One Network. One Compliance Graph.
The difference between isolated tools and a unified operating system is intelligence. Grapelock doesn't just mint assets — it understands who made them, where they came from, what rules they must follow, and how they're allowed to move.
Signal Flow
Every module feeds data into the defense graph. GrapelockCore processes signals in real-time, building a complete threat picture that no isolated tool could see.
Rule Correlation
The system doesn't just analyze—it correlates. A certification change + registry update + transfer attempt = compliance validation. Automated enforcement triggered.
Defense Playbooks
Pre-programmed response sequences execute autonomously. No manual intervention. The system identifies, classifies, and neutralizes threats before they reach you.
- • Paper certificates and emails as "proof"
- • Centralized registries per regulator or standard
- • Tokenization without real provenance or regulatory context
- • Manual, slow, lawyer‑heavy escrow processes
- • Compliance checks done late or not at all
- ✓ On‑chain, shared registry of origin and certifications
- ✓ Certification rules enforced at the protocol level
- ✓ Tokenized assets bound tightly to verified, auditable data
- ✓ Programmatic escrow with conditions reflected on-chain
- ✓ Proactive detection of non‑compliant or suspicious flows
Where Grapelock Stands Apart
Not all RWA or tokenization solutions are created equal. Here's how Grapelock compares to typical approaches in the wine sector.
| Capability | Grapelock | Typical Marketplaces | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic asset tokenization | ||||
| Authenticity & origin registry | ||||
| Certification‑aware rules | ||||
| Chain‑of‑custody tracking | ||||
| Regulatory compliance modeling | ||||
| Escrow for wine trades | ||||
| Unified compliance graph | ||||
| Developer‑ready Solana stack |
