Wines & Shared Cellar
A cellar, glasses, and encounters
A wine cellar at Les Halles is not a shelf with labels. It's a place where you go down, sit, and taste. Where you discover winemakers you know, you've met, whose work you love. Friends, for some. Artisans, for all. The cellar is a living collection. It grows with encounters, vineyard trips, and favorites. You'll find names you recognize and estates you won't find anywhere else. And above all, a large table, glasses, and the desire to share.
The Tastings
Regularly, a winemaker comes to Les Halles. He descends to the cellar with his bottles, his story, his accent sometimes. We sit around the large table, taste together, exchange, understand what's behind a wine. It's not a wine course. It's a shared moment with the person who makes the wine. Sometimes it's a weekday evening, sometimes a Saturday noon. These moments don't announce themselves far in advance. They're earned. Those who come regularly hear about them. The others — it will come.
What You'll Find
Your Bottles, Our Cellar
Among our delightful bottles, our wines to discover, there are also your bottles. The reserved lockers, where your bottles await you. Kept in proper conditions, ready for the day you decide to open them. Building your cellar at Les Halles is simple. You taste, you like, you take a few. We store them. You come back when you want, with whom you want, and you open them here, quietly.
Corkage
You have a beautiful bottle at home, saved for an occasion. The occasion might be a dinner at Les Halles. You bring it. We open it, serve it in proper glasses, present it at the start of the meal. It’s an old tradition, corkage: €15 per labeled wine bottle. A few rules, because we want everything to go well. Crémants and champagnes are excluded from this offer. The house reserves a legitimate right of refusal. It’s not arrogance—it’s respect for you, for the Chef, and for what we put on the plate.
The Selection of 6
Six bottles chosen by the sommelier. A coherent selection, renewed with the seasons. To start a cellar, or to let yourself be guided. We keep them for you, you come back to drink them. It's a way to explore without making mistakes. To trust someone who tastes hundreds of wines a year and retains only a few.
