Sherry-Lehmann’s owners have allegedly treated New York’s premier wine shop like their own personal booze stash — helping themselves to rare, pricey vintages on the company dime even as angry customers claim that they’re not getting the deliveries they paid for, The Post has learned., sources said the iconic, 88-year-old vintner is in danger of closing its doors as it has racked up a $3.1 million sales tax bill to New York state.
Sherry-Lehmann CEO Shyda Gilmer frequently snatched booze from shelves as he went out to dine at swanky eateries such as Nobu 57 and La Goulue, sources said.They weren’t packing off with budget-friendly specials — instead toting bottles of rare Champagne, Burgundy and Bordeaux that would have fetched hundreds, if not thousands of dollars at the store, according to sources.
Past owners — whose clients over the decades had included Greta Garbo and Andy Warhol — “never treated themselves in such an ostentatious manner,” one former executive told The Post. They “didn’t deplete the store’s inventory, which is just bad business.” Sherry-Lehmann staffers were also supposedly instructed to send cases of fancy Champagne, Burgundy and Rose to Gilmer’s summer rental pad in the Hamptons at zero cost to him — and the tab rose to staggering heights, according to sources.
