Manufacture Aix&terra
Discover dishes prepared by our resident chefs using the best fruit, vegetables and herbs from local producers in Provence. We use top-quality ingredients such as Menton lemons, PDO figs from Provence, Cavaillon melon, IGP organic garlic from the Drôme and Tanche olives from Nyons. These raw materials are processed by our artisanal partner Aix&terra, with no added colourings or preservatives. The resident chefs at A l'Epicerie offer "must-try" recipes as well as "creative recipes", all made with a seasonal ingredient from the Aix&terra traditional Provencal factory. The dishes on the Table-Epicerie Aix&terra menu are prepared with the greatest respect for the produce. Aix&terra is the creator of the Tables-Epiceries Aix&terra and the artisanal partner of the Tables "A l'Epicerie".
René Tourrette House
A huge cheese bell is the centrepiece of the main room in some of our "A l'Epicerie" boutiques! This bell is even listed in the 1989 Guinness Book as the largest in the world. It's impossible to miss, with its impressive dimensions of almost 2 metres in diameter and height! Initially designed in 1988 by René Tourrette, an Alsatian Master Cheesemaker, this cheese bell marked the beginning of the history of Maison Tourette. Since 2020, it has been delighting the taste buds of our "A l'Epicerie" customers! All the cheeses carefully selected and purchased from Maison Tourrette reach maturity in this cloche, developing all their taste qualities. The cloche's technology enhances the flavours of up to 90 varieties of cheese. Our "A l'Epicerie" menu includes a variety of cheese-based dishes, discovery platters of France, raclettes, fondues, monts d'or, as well as a special offer for events and banquets. We are proud of our partner artisans at Tables "A l'Epicerie".

EPC
Edouard, Jérôme and Camille met by chance in 2018. They soon realised that they shared a passion for Champagne and a deep desire to cultivate freedom in everything they did. The result is EPC, a French company that has not hesitated to think outside the box when it comes to making its wines, and to involve the winemakers fully in the entire process of creating the cuvées. In addition to this new model of collaboration, unprecedented in Champagne, there is the added bonus of transparency, since "no cuvée leaves the cellar without mentioning its origin and composition: they will be traceable, or they won't be! Wines and champagnes that regularly win awards, and rightly so. Partner of the "A l'Epicerie" tables.
New, coming soon
Just a little more patience, and you'll soon be able to discover our future French partner, who has excelled in his field for many years. A little hint? A number of us consume some of these types of products, sometimes even several times a day!
