Nicolas Coppel Chez Philippe

Originally from Burgundy, Nicolas Coppel has a nose that’s particularly sensitive to Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. He developed his passion during his early career with Claude Legras, at Le Floris in Anières. But it was in his native region, when creating the menu for the Relais & Château de l’Abbaye de la Bussière, that he deepened his knowledge of these well-known grape varieties. Each professional experience brings him new enrichment in his chosen field, and he returns to Geneva, to the Hôtel de la Paix, before finding his place.

And so it is Philippe’sfor the past 7 years. A Swiss vision with a capital YES; his greatest joy is discovering and sharing the wine nuggets of our region, this vast terroir that is rarely exported. Right now, his heart is set on Neûchatel Pinot Noirs, which can match the taste of some of France’s great names. At Philippe’s, ask for Nicolas, and share in the (re)discovery of our winemakers.
