As soon as you enter, you enter a unique world of surprises, sharing and refinement.

Masterful, spectacular architecture
Jean-Michel Wilmotte has masterfully transcribed the creative abundance of Hennessy, Moët & Chandon, Dom Pérignon, Krug, Ruinart and Veuve Clicquot. By simultaneously reinterpreting two vine-growing terroirs, the world of Cognac and the world of Champagne, he has worked like a cellar master or chef de cave who marries diverse, natural elements to fashion a unique work of art.
True to the values of Les Maisons, its architecture expresses tradition with contemporary beauty.
This first boutique showcases Moët Hennessy’s expertise in winegrowing, its love of the right gesture, its respect for nature and terroirs, and its excellence in taste creation.
The organization of the space, elegant, obvious and sophisticated, reflects their strength, inventiveness and character.

To symbolize the world of champagnes, the famous architect uses transparencies and plays of light to reveal the most remarkable vintages of Champagne, as if floating weightlessly before your eyes. This diaphanous brilliance evokes the golden robes of these wines, and the fine, airy bubbles that rise in the glass.

The world of Hennessy features warm, deep woods to evoke the barrels in which the eaux-de-vie rest and refine before the expert blending by the cellar master.
Your sense of touch appreciates these noble materials, mirrors, glass and wood, punctuating the interior space.

A delicate scent, imagined by Thierry Wasser, master perfumer at Guerlain, awakens your sense of smell. This olfactory stimulation amplifies the revelation you are experiencing.
After meeting Richard Geoffroy, Dom Pérignon cellar master, Thierry Wasser created “Fleur de Vigne”, an original interior fragrance dedicated to this space. He has combined a hint of violet, a touch of lime blossom and a few touches of lily of the valley in this discreet fragrance that takes you to the heart of the Moët Hennessy vineyards.

Les Maisons Moët Hennessy en musique
Your ear is discreetly touched by an innovative sound design. As you pass by, invisible sensors broadcast an interactive soundscape. Depending on the objects, the bottles you touch and your movements, the sound design whispers some of the secrets of our Houses.
Take the Hennessy Privé bottle in your hand and you’re immediately immersed in 1920s music, reminiscent of the Art Deco inspiration that shaped the blending of this cognac.
In front of the Paradis Impérial bottle, the words of Yann Fillioux, cellar master, are heard; the words of Richard Geoffroy, Dom Pérignon cellar master, become audible as soon as you touch the Vintage 2004.
On the other hand, when the Grands Crus cellar is opened, the most obvious ceremony is silence. Faced with such rare vintages as Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage 1959, Veuve Clicquot Vintage 1979, Dom Pérignon Oenothèque 1971 and Clos d’Ambonnay 1998, you’re left speechless.
Everything is fluid, light, luminous, refined and warm. You’re free to move from the world of champagnes to the world of Hennessy, with the lure of the vine as your sesame. Your tastes are revealed and refined.
