First Impression

The wine list at Sushi Noz reads like a love letter to Burgundy and Champagne β€” curated, focused, and completely unapologetic about it. This is not a list trying to be everything to everyone; it's around 300-400 selections built with a clear point of view. You're here for a $300+ omakase, and the wine program is calibrated to match that same energy.

Selection Deep Dive

France dominates, and specifically Burgundy and Champagne dominate France. We're talking Domaine de la RomanΓ©e-Conti, Henri Jayer, Domaine Leroy, Armand Rousseau on the red side β€” and Krug, Salon Blanc de Blancs, and Jacques Selosse anchoring the bubbles. White Burgundy gets serious treatment too, with Domaine Ramonet, Domaine Leflaive, and Comte Lafon all present. If you came looking for a broad new-world selection or an adventurous natural wine detour, wrong room β€” but if you came to drink some of the most iconic bottles in the world alongside some of the most iconic fish in New York, you're exactly where you need to be.

By the Glass

Expect somewhere between 10 and 20 by-the-glass options, with pours starting around $25 and climbing well past $100 for the serious stuff. The glass program mirrors the bottle list β€” French-focused, quality-first, no filler. With four named sommeliers on staff, someone can always walk you through what's pouring and why.

πŸ’°Best Value

Jacques Selosse Champagne β€” $30-50/glass (est.)

In a room full of trophy bottles, Selosse by the glass is the move β€” singular house style, terroir-driven fizz that holds its own against aged tuna and uni without making you commit to a full bottle at these price points.

πŸ’ŽHidden Gem

Domaine Ramonet White Burgundy

Everyone at the table is eyeing the DRC and the Jayer, but Ramonet's whites are quietly one of the best Chardonnay producers on earth. Order a glass with the nodoguro nigiri and thank us later.

β›”Skip This

Entry-level Burgundy by the bottle

At these markup levels, the gap between what you're paying and what you could find retail is widest at the lower end of the bottle list. The magic here is at the top β€” if the budget isn't there for the serious bottles, lean into the glass program instead.

🍽️Perfect Pairing

Salon Blanc de Blancs Champagne + Aged bluefin tuna (maguro) nigiri

Salon's laser-focused acidity and long minerality cut through the rich fat of aged maguro without stepping on the fish's umami depth. It's one of those rare pairings where both elements get better, not louder.

πŸ”₯ The Bottom Line

Sushi Noz is running one of the most intentional wine programs in New York β€” not the biggest, not the cheapest, but absolutely one of the best when it comes to matching world-class wine to world-class fish. Send your friends here, but tell them to budget for both.
