“A great pairing doesn’t just emphasize the wine or the food, it transforms them both and elevates the partnership to a perfect harmony.”

Overseen by Wine Director Aldo Sohm, Le Bernardin’s wine program focuses on pairings that complement the cuisine of Chef Eric Ripert. While the cellar includes a large number of wines from the Old World regions of Burgundy, Rhône, Austria, and Germany, the 15,000-bottle collection is truly global, with 900 wine selections from 12 different countries, and vintages dating back to 1875.

Sohm joined Le Bernardin in 2007, the year he was awarded “Best Sommelier in America.” The following year, he was voted “Best Sommelier in the World.” Under Sohm’s direction, Le Bernardin received the 2009 James Beard Award for “Outstanding Wine Service.”
