A Journey Through Wine
The Vinothèque is more than just a wine store; it's a space dedicated to the discovery, learning, and enjoyment of wine. Whether you're torn between two bottles for a special dinner or looking for the perfect wine for an aperitif with friends, we're here to guide you.
Choosing the Ideal Wine
Selecting a wine can seem daunting with all the options available: red, white, rosé, sparkling... the possibilities are endless. This is where The Vinothèque steps in to help you find the ideal wine. We offer a diverse selection tailored to your tastes, the occasion, and the dishes you plan to pair with. To find out which wine suits you best, take our quiz!
The Art of Service
Beyond choosing the wine, The Vinothèque is committed to teaching you the art of serving it. Knowing how to open a bottle of wine, the ideal serving temperature, and even how to pour the wine correctly are skills that enhance the tasting experience.
Opening a Bottle of Champagne
Champagne, a symbol of celebration, requires special attention when opening. Here's a method to open a bottle safely:
- Chill the Bottle: Keep the champagne at a temperature of 6 to 8°C to minimize pressure upon opening.
- Remove the Foil: Gently unwrap the metal foil surrounding the cork.
- Loosen the Wire Cage: Untwist the wire while maintaining pressure on the cork.
- Open with Care: Tilt the bottle slightly, hold the cork, and gently turn the bottle. The cork should come out with a soft "pouf" rather than a loud "pop."
Education and Discovery
The Vinothèque is not just about selling wine; we also educate our customers. We regularly organize tastings, workshops, and seminars to deepen your knowledge about wine, from winemaking to food pairings.

Our tasting workshops are perfect for those who want to refine their palate. You'll learn to identify the aromas, flavors, and textures of wines, while discovering the unique characteristics of different wine regions.
