Gwendal Cosson

A lifelong wine and spirits enthusiast, I founded Bestwine • Online to make the expertise of the world's greatest sommeliers and Michelin-starred chefs accessible to everyone.

Founder’s story

Bestwine • Online creator. I'm not a sommelier, not an oenologist, not a food critic — just a passionate enthusiast who realised something simple: to discover the finest bottles, just look at what's served in the world's greatest Michelin-starred restaurants.

Bestwine • Online was born from this conviction: the chefs and sommeliers of Michelin-starred gastronomic restaurants are the true experts in wines and spirits. They select daily what they consider the best for their demanding guests. Why not draw inspiration from their choices?

My mission

To gather, in a single transparent and impartial platform, the wines and spirits featured on Michelin-starred restaurant wine lists. Every bottle on Bestwine • Online has been chosen by a recognised professional for its excellence — not by an algorithm, not by a commercial partnership.

My approach

Bestwine • Online is an independent reference. No brand pays to be featured on the site. The selection is built solely from the public wine lists of Michelin-starred gastronomic restaurants. You'll find reliable references, regularly updated, with direct links to the best online offers.
