African House of experiences & emotions

We bring exceptional cuvées together with those who know how to receive them.

A word from the founder

“It is not the days we remember, but the moments.”

If there's one thing I've learned along the way, it's that good counsel matters more than a handsome label. I don't sell bottles — I help create moments worth remembering.

That is ART DE VIE: receiving you as our own, recommending what I would choose for myself, and never letting the gilding intimidate you.

Our House

What sets us apart.

01

Expertise

Over 20 years' experience, 35 African markets — at your service in Abidjan.

02

Exclusivity

Direct mandates with the great houses. Never a middleman.

03

Culture

A house that knows Africa and the precision of its tastes.

04

Experience

Beyond the bottle: tastings, advice and the art of hosting.

Tastings & Experiences

Live the wine,
share the emotion.

Beyond the glass: gatherings that bring people together, move them, and stay with you.

Three ways to live wine with us — to learn, to celebrate, to escape. Yours to choose.

I

Tastings

A guided introduction, no jargon, no pretence. We teach you to recognise what moves you — and to choose it without hesitation.

II

Private & corporate receptions

Your moment, bespoke, in our setting or at your home. You host; we take care of the rest.

III

Wine tourism

At the heart of the estates we love. Wine at its source, where the emotion begins.
