5e Cru – Cave à Vin & Table d’hôtes, Paris 5 | BKWine Pick
It looks like a wine store and it is a wine store. But also a very inspiring place for a lunch or a dinner, amongst wine bottles and wine cases. The selection of wines is amazingly good, if you – like us – like small, ambitious producers with a penchant for terroir and organic viticulture. [...]
