This is that classic little Paris wine bar that you dream of whenever you think of a perfect evening in Paris. This location of the Ecluse wine bars is especially iconic since it's in the March Saint-Honore, that enclosed square just a stone's throw from Opera and Place Vendome.
The wines here cover the vast terroirs of France, from Burgundy to Bordeaux, from the Loire to the Rhone. Here you will find the wine of the month, a special selection by the wine bars' chief sommelier, paired with an appetizer plate of specially selected cheeses, cold cuts, paté and other small nibbles. Of course, you can also order off the menu.
Wines come by the glass and by the bottle. Wine enthusiasts can order a glass, then if they like what they taste, they can order the full bottle. Here you'll find Petrus as well as Cristal Rose by Roederer.

EXPERT TIPS BY:

Paris Local Expert
- Bars: "There are several Ecluse wine bars around the city. What makes this one special is that several times a week, there is live music playing inside the bar. French chansons, light jazz and piano bar tunes liven up the wine selection that much more. Also the enclosed open square of the March St.-Honore makes you feel you are a privileged insider."
- Best for Bars Because: Paris and wine bar are practically synonyms. Still, you want to choose one with both atmosphere and excellent wines. This has that, plus music nights.
