Use case

The winery, from cuvées to allocations

A winery manages a stock that exists nowhere else: cuvées by vintage, in bottles, magnums and cases, split between wine shops, restaurants and loyal private clients. Blueprint Maker generates the tool that speaks YOUR language — not an agrifood ERP's.

A three-dimensional stock the spreadsheet flattens

Winery stock counts in cuvée × vintage × format: the same cuvée exists in 75 cl, magnum and six-bottle cases, across two vintages on sale. The spreadsheet flattens those dimensions into multiplying columns, and simple questions become manual calculations: how many magnums of the flagship cuvée remain? What ships first to wine shops?

Add wine's specific commercial dimension: trade clients with their pricing and habits, loyal private buyers, sometimes allocations on rare cuvées — relationship tracking that till software ignores.

Your cuvées, formats and clients — structured

Describe your winery: “We produce five cuvées. Each vintage has stock per format (bottle, magnum). We sell to trade (wine shops, restaurants) with differentiated pricing and to private clients at the cellar door. Orders draw down stock. I want stock by cuvée and vintage, orders to prepare and revenue by channel.”

The generated application fits that structure: cuvées and vintages, stock per format, clients with their category, orders that decrement stock — and a dashboard answering the cellar's questions as well as the office's.

  • Cuvées, vintages and stock per format
  • Trade and private clients with categories
  • Orders and stock movements
  • Purchase history per client
  • Dashboard: stock, orders, revenue by channel

Client history, the heart of direct sales

A winery's commercial value rests on loyalty: the wine shop that has followed the estate for ten years, the private client who takes their case every spring. A structured purchase history — who took what, on which vintage — turns every campaign into targeted outreach rather than a bulk mailing.

Generated demo data simulates a living estate (cuvées, varied clients, order history) so you judge the tool immediately.

The estate's tool, not a merchant's subscription

The application belongs to the estate: code ZIP export, GitHub push, free hosting — or the provided dedicated URL. The client base and sales history stay in the estate's assets, transferable with it.

Free Discovery plan for the first application; Pro (€25/month) and Max (€149/month) to iterate, with the cost shown before each generation.

Frequently asked questions — winery management

Can we manage allocations on rare cuvées?

Yes: describe how you operate (quantities reserved per client on certain cuvées) and the generated structure reflects it, tracking served and remaining.

Is differentiated trade / private pricing handled?

Describe your client categories and their pricing: they become structuring fields of client records and orders.

Does the application cover regulatory declarations?

No — regulatory filings have their dedicated tools. The application covers your operational and commercial tracking; its structured data makes filings that much easier.

Can we use it at the cellar door to record a sale?

It's a web application usable on a tablet at the cellar door: entering a private order takes seconds and decrements stock.

Does the estate own the tool?

Yes: exportable code (ZIP, GitHub), free hosting. The tool and its history are part of the estate's assets.
