Packing House Wines
This is a Champagne list, all 35 bottles, no still wine and nothing by the glass, so everything here is sparkling and from one region. It runs deep on grower and grande marque houses alike, with Gosset showing up four times and solid showings from Henriot, Ayala, and Taittinger. Most of the action sits in an accessible range with a median around $75, and bottles open at $55, so you can pour something serious without scaring the table. The top end is the prestige tier you would expect, Louis Roederer Cristal at $265, Pol Roger Cuvee Sir Winston Churchill at $260, and Taittinger Comte de Champagne up near $205. This rewards anyone who loves Champagne and wants range across producers, but know going in that bubbles are the whole story, so steer guests accordingly.
