Bringing together emblematic Maisons from different regions of France, Moet 
Hennessy has been able to showcase the excellence of the group's brands since 
2014 through a unique and innovative concept: Les Caves Particulieres. Designed 
to introduce travelers from around the world to the Moet Hennessy portfolio, 
the concept reveals the terroirs and craftsmanship of the group's wines and 
spirits Maisons.

In a quest for excellence, Les Caves Particulières is undergoing a complete 
makeover this year. The new project was entrusted to iconoclastic architect, 
Hubert de Malherbe, a renowned expert in design and retail design. Playing with 
stone and wood, but also with the iconic shipping crates, one of the symbols of 
the group's spirit of conquest, he was able to modernize the space with a 
simple and pure design, putting the consumer at the heart of the project with a 
large central experience table. The olfactory signature of the boutique was 
created by Thierry Wasser, perfumer of Maison Guerlain.

Les Caves Particulières is located in Terminal 2E of Paris-Charles de Gaulle 
Airport. This area is a unique place to showcase the French luxury brands. An 
ambassador for the French art de vivre, the space will offer immersive 
experiences, while showcasing exceptional products available exclusively in 
Paris throughout the year, in particular a Hennessy Special Edition. Many 
exclusive services and products are available to travelers, including rarities 
Edition Particuliere Hennessy, the limited-edition Hennessy XO Paris, discovery 
and mixology workshops, personalization, as well as a series of food and wine 
pairing experiences developed in partnership with the gastronomic space, La 
Halle Gourmande. Les Caves Particulières and its staff, dedicated to the 
curious and demanding travelers, is the destination of choice for hedonists.

MOET HENNESSY QUOTES

- Laurent Boidevezi, President Travel Retail & AFME LAC – Private Sales: "Les 
Caves Particulieres is an avant-garde project that paved the way for Moet 
Hennessy's retail access worldwide. Today, at Paris-Charles de Gaulle, our home 
airport, we offer an experience that is even closer to our customers, who will 
find the most exclusive products from our Maisons at Les Caves Particulières."

- Donatienne de Fontaines-Guillaume, Managing Director Travel Retail EMEA & 
America - Moet Hennessy: "What drove this project was a strong desire for each 
traveler leaving France to take with him a part of the French Art de vivre, the 
most beautiful creations from our terroirs, with the generosity of Mother 
Nature; we had the treasures, we needed a treasure chest at the same level of 
excellence, an original space dedicated to this unique portfolio through which 
to share unique experiences with the traveler. We came up with the idea and 
created the ultimate experience of French de vivre in Paris." 

- Hubert de Malherbe, CEO & Designer - Malherbe Paris: "I wanted Les Caves 
Particulieres to offer an immobile journey of sorts; a delightful blend of the 
spirit of conquest of the Maisons and the beauty of their terroirs and 
know-how. We have the soul of each Maison, from the banks of the Richonne to 
the brown combe stones of the Cognac region, passing through the chalk cellars 
where the champagnes are aged. The visitor can travel to the heart of the 
Maisons thanks to immersive screens, a unique physical experience coupled with 
a tasting of exceptional products around a central bar, testament to the 
importance of the conviviality in this space."
