First Impression

You're in the MetLife Building, surrounded by people on expense accounts, and the wine list reads like a Burgundy collector's fever dream. Domaine de la RomanΓ©e-Conti, Henri Jayer, Armand Rousseau β€” this isn't a hotel lobby wine list, it's a statement. The oceanic room is gorgeous, but the list is what earns the second look.

Selection Deep Dive

The list leans hard into France, and specifically Burgundy, with a Champagne section that name-drops Krug, Dom PΓ©rignon, Louis Roederer Cristal, and doesn't apologize for any of it. Domaine Leflaive and Domaine Leroy round out a white Burgundy bench that most restaurants in this city can't touch. The regional focus is narrow by design β€” this isn't a globe-trotting list, it's a love letter to one corner of France, written by someone who clearly knows the address. If you came looking for Napa Cab or an Argentinian Malbec, you're in the wrong room.

By the Glass

Specific by-the-glass options and counts weren't available at time of review, but with sommelier Michael Furletti running the program and a list built around this caliber of producer, expect the pours to be serious and not cheap. We'd push for the glass program details on your visit β€” a team this invested in the list doesn't pour from the bottom shelf.

πŸ’°Best Value

Louis Roederer Cristal β€” Price not listed

In the context of a list anchored by DRC and Henri Jayer, Cristal is the accessible entry point into the luxury tier β€” still a splurge, but you're getting one of the most consistent prestige Champagnes on the planet in a room built for it.

πŸ’ŽHidden Gem

Domaine Leflaive

Everyone at the table is eyeing the red Burgundy, but Leflaive's whites are the quiet giants here β€” precise, mineral, age-worthy Puligny-Montrachet that most diners walk right past on their way to the DRC section.

β›”Skip This

Dom PΓ©rignon

Dom PΓ©rignon is a perfectly good Champagne, but in a room where Krug is on the list, paying the DP premium feels like ordering the second-best thing. Bump up or go elsewhere.

🍽️Perfect Pairing

Domaine Leflaive + Seafood (chef's selection)

Point Seven is built around seafood in a nautical-modern space, and Leflaive's white Burgundy β€” chalk-driven, precise, with enough weight to hold its ground β€” is exactly what you want against anything from the ocean that's prepared with care.

🎲 The Bottom Line

Point Seven isn't a wildcard because it's weird β€” it's a wildcard because finding this level of Burgundy curation inside a Midtown office tower is genuinely unexpected. Send your friends here if they want to drink seriously and don't mind paying for it.
