Pierre Gagnaire pour les Airelles

Pierre Gagnaire's Courchevel dining room brings his signature multi-textured, ingredient-driven cooking to the mountains, a tasting menu that rewards slow, snowy evenings.

Each course tends to arrive as a small cluster of dishes rather than one plate, which suits Gagnaire's restless style and gives the meal a sense of discovery from start to finish. The wine pairing, curated with a strong Rhône and Jura bias, is worth the addition, and the room's low ceilings and warm timber make even a three-hour dinner feel intimate rather than long.
