Archives is a wine house and event venue at 6 rue de l'Ouest, in the 14th arrondissement of Paris. It hosts private and corporate events for 80 guests standing or 40 seated, with cocktails and tailored dinners paired with wine. The space is modular and changes with each event, and a team of sommeliers and designers works on the service.
Seminars and company events
The request form for a booking lists the corporate formats the venue handles: seminar or meeting, training, product launch, wine tasting, corporate event, professional cocktail, seated dinner, business breakfast and networking. Time slots go from a breakfast at 8 a.m. to an evening that ends at 2 a.m., including an afternoon or seminar slot from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. and a full day.
For a company, the venue is most convincing as a place for a team dinner, a client evening, a product launch or a tasting-based team activity. Archives also runs tasting workshops, with courses in oenology, cooking and mixology, and introductions to sommellerie and masterclasses. These can be turned into a team session. Wine dinners pair a menu designed by a guest chef with a selection of wines chosen by the sommelier.
Weddings and receptions
The venue does not present a wedding hire offer. It mentions an event support service for weddings, product launches, private views and corporate gifts, where sommeliers help select the wines and welcome you at Archives to meet them. The venue also hosts birthdays and private events.
Rooms and capacities
The official figure is 80 guests standing or 40 seated. The site describes one modular space that is reshaped for each event, rather than separate named rooms. Standing, it suits a cocktail or a launch. Seated, it suits an intimate dinner, which is the format the team highlights. A kitchen is available for guest chef residencies, in which invited chefs take over the kitchen for a limited period and create an exclusive menu.
Catering
The venue offers refined cocktails and tailored dinners with food and wine pairings, with scenography, service, sommellerie and welcome handled by the team. Wine selection is the center of the offer: Archives sells rare cuvées, hosts winemaker presentations and builds wine cellars for companies and individuals, which can extend to a corporate gift or a cellar.
History and setting
Archives describes itself as a new wine house with a contemporary, clean setting. The team combines sommeliers and designers, and the style extends beyond the walls to events at your own premises.
