Private Client Cellar Services
Inventory, sourcing, valuation, cellar organization, and in-residence bar programs for private homes, estates, and family offices. Flask provides discreet private-client service backed by six decades of wine and spirits expertise.
Private cellars, estate bars, and ongoing collection support
We help private collectors, estate managers, EAs, designers, and family offices bring structure to wine cellars and home bars, whether the need is a complete inventory, a new cellar build, insurance documentation, sourcing, or ongoing management.
The work does not stop once the first inventory is complete. We can maintain the cellar after deliveries, dinners, parties, staff pulls, and seasonal restocking, with clear tracking workflows and automated systems that keep the collection accurate over time.
Flask serves Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Bel Air, Brentwood, Pacific Palisades, Malibu, Hancock Park, Pasadena, Holmby Hills, Manhattan Beach, Newport Beach, Orange County, and Silicon Valley. Select California, national, and international projects are considered by request where appropriate.
Services
Initial counts, location mapping, drinking windows, and organization by region, producer, maturity, or access priority. Ongoing work can include receiving logs, dinner and event pull tracking, variance checks, barcode/iPad scanning, CellarTracker management, or automated live RFID-managed inventory systems.
Targeted buying for cellar gaps, verticals, special vintages, entertaining needs, and hard-to-source wine and spirits through Flask allocations, private offers, and direct imports.
Collection documentation, market-aware valuation support, bottle photography, and reports prepared for insurance, estate planning, or internal review.
Coordinated receiving, cellar moves, off-site storage planning, and careful handling for rare bottles, large formats, and high-value spirits.
Guidance on bottles to sell, hold, drink, gift, or consign, with sale paths through retail, private buyers, or auction partners when appropriate.
Backbar planning, spirits curation, par levels, glassware and tool recommendations, seasonal cocktail direction, and ongoing bar inventory management.
Start with a confidential consultation. We can review the collection, priorities, timeline, and any existing inventory before recommending next steps.
