Le Cerle

  • Le Cercle is an invitation-led, ongoing private wine advisory relationship. It is designed for collectors committed to building, refining and enjoying a cellar of real distinction — with independent guidance, selected sourcing opportunities and discreet, long-term support from Tony Lécuroux MS.

  • The Advisory Program is a one-time diagnostic of your existing collection.

    Le Cercle is the ongoing relationship that can follow: continuous guidance, sourcing direction and long-term cellar strategy. Many members begin with an Advisory session before joining.

  • Le Cercle is not sold publicly. Access opens after an enquiry and a personal consultation, during which we clarify your cellar, your ambitions and the level of support you need. Membership begins only once the scope and terms are agreed in writing.

  • No. There is no public checkout and no free trial. Entry tiers show an indicative price range; the highest tier is by private consultation. Your terms are confirmed individually.

    • Initiate: the beginning.

    • Devotion: the depth.

    • Magistral. The Mastery

    They differ in the intensity of support: number of calls, depth of sourcing, access to The Black Book, private travel and the level of cellar oversight.

  • A confidential layer of allocations, rare bottles, auctions and private opportunities sourced through Tony's network. It unlocks from Devotion onwards.

  • Membership begins with an initial advisory period, then continues as a fidelity engagement.

    The exact terms, duration and notice, are confirmed in your onboarding agreement

  • No. Le Cercle is independent advisory. Wine purchases, travel, auction and third-party costs are quoted separately unless specifically included in your agreement.

  • Discretion is the standard of the service — the same expected by private clients and family offices. Your collection and information remain strictly confidential.

Advisory Program

  • A one-time private cellar consultation — CHF 500 — to assess your collection, understand your taste and clarify your next steps. It is the natural first step into Tony's advisory world, and into Le Cercle where relevant.

  • An introductory meeting (in person or by video), a structured analysis of your existing collection, and a personalised report covering current status, drinking windows, strengths and gaps, market context, buying direction and future sourcing strategy

  • CHF 500, in two stages: a CHF 250 non-refundable deposit to confirm the booking, and a CHF 250 balance before your final report is delivered.

  • The Advisory Program does not include purchasing, sourcing management, rare allocation access, auction representation or ongoing cellar management. These belong to Le Cercle.

    • It works best if you already own wine, but it also suits clients who are about to start a cellar and want a clear, independent direction before buying.

  • Yes. The CHF 500 is credited in full toward your membership if you go on to join Le Cercle.

  • A clear, written view of your cellar and a concrete plan — what to open, what to keep and what to acquire next. The report is yours to keep, whether or not you continue.

  • Yes. The discovery meeting can take place in person or by video call, whichever suits you.
