It's hard to narrow it down to only 7 but here are mine, excluding Paris which is a jewel too:

1. the Loire Valley : http://www.experienceloire.com/
2. the cliffs of Etretat : http://www.etretat.net/office_de_tourisme_etretat/pages/anglais_accueil.php
3. Carcassonne : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carcassonne
4. the (7,000-year old) great cairn of Barnenez : http://www.paleologos.com/cairn.htm
5. Rocamadour : http://www.rocamadour.com/anglais/accueilanglais.htm
6. the Dune du Pilat : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Dune_of_Pyla
7. the Lascaux cave : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lascaux

but there are also the villages of the Lot valley, the majestic Mont Blanc, the Alpine lakes of le Bourget and Annecy, the Camargue, the standing stones of Carnac, the Normandie bridge and Millau viaduct, les Baux de Provence, the Popes' palace in Avignon, the Roman arenas in NÃ®mes, the pink granit coast of northern Brittany, the turquoise waters of the grand Canyon of the Verdon...

As an ex-pat who lives here (and therefore totally biased!! )
Here are my seven wonders:
1,choice of climate.!
2,space to live!
3,the best health care in the world!
4,A 2hr lunch break with wine!
5,An elected goverment,not just passing the torch to someone like Gordon Brown?
6, not getting stabbed on a daily basis(they employ police here!)
7,using local taxes(council tax)...to actually clean the streets,clean the beach,daily refuse collection(in the cities),etc etc...

Victoria

1. Eiffel Tower
2. The Louvre
a. mona lisa
b. portrait of john the bapist
3. L'Arc de Triomphe
4. Skiing in the Alps
5. Nice for the Beaches
6. Notre Dame Cathedral
7. Bordeaux for the wine

I have more but those are my top 7. I absolutely loved France.

I'm guessing you mean natural or architectural monuments, so here's my list:

notre dame
eiffel tower
chartres cathedral
hotel dieu (beaune)
lascaux caves (in the dordogne)
carcassone
bayeu tapestry
