## Machine-readable AI catalogue (JSON)

Structured JSON endpoints intended for AI systems and LLM agents. Read-only, no authentication. These are static files regenerated on every site publish — see the `lastUpdated` field in each response. Stock levels are banded (low/medium/high) for commercial privacy; exact case counts are never exposed. Prices are In Bond (duty and VAT excluded), GBP per case; wines without a price are available on request (`price_on_request: true`).

- [Discovery document](https://www.albanyvintners.com/api/ai/index.json): Site description, endpoint list, product URL pattern, pricing and stock notes
- [All wines](https://www.albanyvintners.com/api/ai/wines.json): Full in-stock catalogue, one compact JSON object per wine

Each wine entry includes: producer, name, vintage, appellation, region, country, classification, colour, wine type, format (pack size × bottle size), critic score, drinking window, price (or price_on_request), availability, stock band, lwin7/lwin11 identifiers, image URL, and the canonical product URL.
