Selection
Ferdinand’s Saar Dry Gin
Dried apricot and sage herbs lead an aromatic, finely fruity profile. The palate is creamy and composed, with juniper, fresh citrus and savoury botanical detail held in careful balance.

Enderle & Moll 2018 Muschelkalk Pinot Noir 750 mL
Sharp and energetic, with vivid red fruit and a cool pine freshness at the front. The wine then turns toward earthy mushroom tones, adding both savoury detail and textural depth.

The palate is dry and lightly sweetened, with wormwood and peppercorn shaping a firm botanical bitterness around the fresh seasonal ingredients. A clear wine core keeps the texture lively and integrated. Serve lightly chilled over ice, with soda, or as an expressive dry-vermouth component in a Martini.
Rene Geoffroy Expression Brut NV Champagne Premier Cru
Ripe golden apple and nectarine open with a gentle note of hay, vanilla and warm bread.

Pour as an aperitif or with gougeres, roast chicken and creamy cheeses.
Mayhem 2025 Sparkling Rose Can
Lifted strawberry meets mango, pineapple, lychee and a bright touch of citrus zest. The palate is juicy and smooth, with fine bubbles and lemony acidity keeping the generous fruit fresh.

Taittinger NV Brut Réserve
Pale golden-yellow with fine, persistent bubbles, opening on delicate white flowers, peach and crisp apple.

Clement Lavallee 45 Degrees 2022 Chablis
A focused Chablis with green apple, pear and citrus set against lightly salted butter and a chalky mineral note.

Structured and persistent, it closes with plum, olive, pepper and a long savoury finish that retains impressive energy and definition.
Serge Mathieu Select Tete De Cuvee Brut
A generous, harmonious Champagne with fine citrus notes and a delicate, polished feel.

Elegant as an aperitif, it also suits oysters, smoked salmon, soft cheese or light canapés.
Vaudon VSOP Cognac
Toffee, honey and salted caramel open with ripe plum and fig. The palate is smooth and delicately rounded, moving from candied fruit into white fruit and soft floral tones.
