WHY ARCHIBON?
ARCHIBON was created around a simple idea: wine should feel approachable, social and memorable without becoming intimidating.
Hosted by sommelier Henri Varlet, our tastings focus on small French producers, practical wine knowledge and genuine conversation rather than formal or overly technical presentations.
Whether you are visiting Paris, organizing a private celebration or planning a corporate event, the goal remains the same: creating moments people genuinely enjoy and remember.

MEET YOUR HOST
I’m Henri, a sommelier and founder of ARCHIBON, a Paris wine bar focused on small-production French wines that reflect place, character, and tradition.
Born in Normandie and raised in Paris, I spent 15 years in international banking before turning a lifelong passion into a profession. I handpick every bottle I serve, working directly with independent winemakers who farm with care and integrity.
In the last year, I hosted 3,O00 guests across 400 tastings and events. Each experience is personal, relaxed, and thoughtfully curated - whether you're a curious beginner or a seasoned wine lover.
For large group events and offsites, I work with a small team of fellow sommeliers who share the same passion for great wine and good conversation.
