Wines and food and wine pairings
Over 800 treasures to discover.
At Elmer, the wine list is an invitation to explore and to travel. With more than 800 wines carefully selected across France, we champion the work of independent growers, from the great classics to the small, lesser-known gems.
A cellar built for wood-fire cooking
The cellar took shape alongside the kitchen. The wood fire brings smoked, grilled, sometimes caramelised notes to the plate, and these call for wines able to answer them without overwhelming them. The selection therefore favours growers with a strong sense of place, lively and easy-drinking cuvées, and wines that come into their own at the table rather than in isolation.
Meat cooked slowly on the spit finds its echo in supple, fruit-forward reds, while the large aged cuts grilled over the barbecue can take more structured wines. Fish seared and glazed on the barbecue pairs readily with characterful whites, ample enough to stand up to the smoke. These are starting points, which we refine at your table according to your tastes and the menu of the day.
Whether you are looking for a safe bet or for a wine you have never tasted before, let yourself be surprised by a rich and varied selection, chosen to bring out the best in every dish and every moment.
