Champagne shop in Paris ; what phrase could be more evocative for a lover of the bubbly? Des Bulles Sinon Rien is a Champagne tasting cellar in the heart of the Marais. The name, appropriately enough, translates as Bubbles Or Nothing, and is a charming grotto of superb champagne and delightful conviviality hosted by the founder of the cellar, the passionate Vladimir Gomel. In just a fifteen minute walk from the Hotel Marais Bastille you could find yourself tasting the finest of sparkling wines. 

Champagne shop in Paris a bubbly delight

Champagne; the very name has a certain allure, perhaps even a mystique about it. The name is sometimes, and quite incorrectly, used as a generic term for other forms of sparkling wine, yet true Champagne is produced from grapes grown in the region from which the drink takes its name, a region in the north east of France, around a hundred miles from Paris. Derived from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes, it can trace its reputation back to the Middle Ages, although the Romans were the first to cultivate the vine in this part of France.

In Des Bulles Sinon Rien you are invited as a friend to taste the true flavours of Champagne beneath 17th century vaulted ceilings where the creations of 120 producers are stored for your delectation. Here there are no precious attitudes, no wine snobbery, only a quiet appreciation of one of the finer things in life. Here the rare is affordable and expensive does not necessarily mean better. This stunning cellar is also a learning centre where appreciation, tasting and wine course workshops are taught by those with a passion for the product. Private tastings can also be organised here.
