Sommelier Notes

Philippe Gonet Cuvée Cellier Rosé NV — Côte des Blancs grower Champagne. Rosé d'assemblage with Pinot Noir from Ambonnay. 39 units across the period makes it the second-highest volume wine SKU. At ~$44/unit from Henderson, it sits in a price band that typically indicates a core list position rather than a one-off feature — though invoice data alone cannot confirm service format or menu role.
Southold Le P'tit Rouge 2024 — North Fork Long Island, Cabernet Franc-dominant blend from a producer known for Loire-inspired work in a New York maritime climate. 72 units makes it the highest-volume wine SKU in the period. At $18/unit, it sits in a band often associated with core list workhorses — though invoice data alone cannot confirm exact menu role or whether velocity has been stable or seasonal.
Vouette & Sorbée Blanc d'Argile R20 — Aube (southern Champagne), biodynamic grower. Brut Nature, zero dosage, Chardonnay. At ~$123/unit this is the highest unit-cost wine in the top SKUs. 6 bottles across the period — the low volume and high unit cost place it in a different purchasing category from the rest of the list. What role it serves (by-the-bottle feature, special allocation, tasting event) is not determinable from invoice data.
400 Conejos Espadin Mezcal — Oaxacan single-village espadin. 32 units makes it the highest-volume agave spirit and the third-highest spirit SKU overall, behind only well staples (Dripping Springs Gin at 27, Deep Eddy Vodka at 27). The reorder pattern suggests consistent draw rather than a single large order — though whether it anchors a specific cocktail build or serves as a general mezcal call is not visible in purchasing data.
Vignobles Berthier Coteaux du Giennois Blanc 2023 — Eastern Loire Sauvignon Blanc, Giennois appellation (less well-known than neighbouring Sancerre or Pouilly-Fumé, typically 30–50% less expensive at wholesale). 60 units at $14/unit. The combination of high volume and low unit cost is consistent with a core white selection. The purchasing data also shows Sancerre (Vincent Pinard, 30 units at $37/unit) from the same region via a different importer — a Loire-weighted white profile appears across both price tiers, though programme architecture is not confirmable from invoices alone.
