This is the wine bar, along with a handful of others, that you see listed in every guidebook, upscale or downscale. It's just that good. And its convenient location near Les Halles makes it an easy stop-in at the end of the day or when meeting up with friends. Its food offerings to go with its vast selection of wines by the glass, carafe and bottle, tend to be rather modest. Traditionally French wine bars offer plates of cheeses and coldcuts and baskets of fresh cut baguette to go along with glasses of wine. That remains such a good and authentic pairing that you no doubt will be satisfied with it.
