Introducing our Sommelier Service; giving you straightforward access to great wines from classic appellations. Whether it’s a few cases of something special or that one ‘dream bottle’, we will have it waiting for you on your arrival in the Alps.

How does it work?  

Everything is taken care of by our in-house sommelier, Guillaume Masson. He will talk you through the range of prestige wines available and help to choose the one for you.

The wines

We have access to an extensive range of the best wines from top vintages and world- renowned appellations. Below are just a few of Guillaume’s top picks – by no means an exhaustive list – to whet your appetite… 

Petrus 1990:

A knock your socks off Pomerol, Jancis Robinson gave this beautiful number 18.5/20 and said ‘Bright crimson. Surprisingly light nose when just decanted with a hint of putty. Something like woodsmoke ashes. Big, sweet and mouthfilling. Almost tarry. Much bigger and bolder than any other 1990.’ Dee-lish.

La Landonne 2009: 

A delicious Rhône valley red, Robert Parker described this as ‘a killer wine’. He said: An extravagant bouquet of black truffles, roasted meats, licorice, ground pepper, blackberries, scorched earth and camphor soars from this muscular, dense, over-the-top, serious, masculine La Landonne.’  

Domaine Roulot Meursault La Perrière 2013:

One of the top white Burgundies that money can buy, this Meursault has been rated 18/20 by Jancis Robinson and is sure to impress. The perfect match for roast chicken, scallops, salmon or snails.

Dom Pérignon Plenitude P2 1998:

Looking for something with a little more sparkle? This legendary vintage Champagne is guaranteed to make your celebration memorable.

… and much, much more! Get in touch with Guillaume to hear more about our extensive list.
