Wine Passion Bar & Shop

“A Hidden French Wine Haven in North Samui Tucked away in a quiet residential corner of northern Koh Samui, where you'd least expect to stumble upon a sophisticated wine bar, lies a delightful little gem that feels like a secret worth sharing—but not too widely. This newly opened wine shop and bar is the passion project of a Frenchman who clearly knows his terroir from his tannins, and it shows in every detail. What strikes you first is how refreshingly unpretentious the whole experience is. The prices won't make your wallet weep, the ambiance wraps around you like a comfortable conversation with an old friend, and the owner himself is the kind of guide every wine explorer hopes to meet—knowledgeable without being pompous, eager to share recommendations that actually suit your palate rather than just pushing the priciest bottle. The selection of cold cuts, French charcuterie, and cheese provides the perfect accompaniment to whatever bottle you choose. There's something deeply satisfying about good saucisson sec and a properly aged Comté paired with a crisp white or a smooth red, especially when you're enjoying it in the tropical warmth of Samui rather than a Parisian cave à vin. This is the kind of place that rewards repeat visits. Each time you drop by, you'll discover another wine to fall in love with, another cheese combination to savor, another nugget of wisdom from the owner. It's not trying to be the flashiest spot on the island—it's simply offering something genuine, welcoming, and thoroughly enjoyable. Consider this your invitation to seek it out. Just don't tell everyone.”

“My wife and I had an unforgettable experience here! We highly recommend visiting this wine shop and bar. The owners, Eric and Pu, are incredibly welcoming and lovely people. Beyond the great wine selection, their French pâté is a must-try (it pairs perfectly with the wine). Don’t hesitate to stop by; once you start, you might find it hard to leave! 🍷✨”

“I felt very welcome because of Erik and his wife Pu. Beautiful wine at a very sharp price with excellent advice. They pay attention to detail and the person. You can always drop in for a glass; they always take the time for you. I've had several wonderful experiences here, ranging from a quiet conversation, meeting other wine lovers, a wine tasting, and a crazy evening singing loudly and dancing to the music. So it can be a surprise who you meet and how the evening unfolds. I love this! If I ever find myself on Koh Samui again (hopefully at the end of this year), this is THE place for me, and it will be my first stop. Merci, Beaucoup! ♥️🍷 Ingrid”

“Wow! This is a hidden gem. What a fantastic find with the most beautiful wines, such a broad selection with even my favourite wine from Portugal! Eric the owner is amazing, so much character and passion, he absolutely goes out of his way to please matching wine with his lovely selection of cheese and pates. We enjoyed many evenings at his wine bar and tried some great wines and charcuterie boards. If you get the chance please pay him a visit, I can honestly say you won’t regret it.”

“The best little wine shop in Plaei Lam area. The owner Erick is super passionate about wine and he’s there every night and his presence makes the experience. His wines are “cost plus” so you are basically paying wholesale for wine and you can drink it there with his amazing selection of cheese, charcuterie, paté and rillettes. You can easily get a bottle of lovely wine and small plate of snacks for 1000 baht.”
