Wine afficionados Etienne Lucan and Sebastien Obert opened this bare-bones cave-à-manger in 2009, having put in time on the ground at Cali-transplant Kevin Blackwell’s only-slightly-less bare-bones restaurant Autour d’Un Verre. Years later, Lucan and Obert oversee considered one of Paris’ most surprisingly glorious and inexpensive wine choices. Their costs stay well-suited to the placement on the sketchier facet of the 9ème arrondissement, however their pure wine choice, heavy on grower Champagne and the wines of allotted cult vignerons like Jean-François Ganevat and Eric Pfifferling, would make mouths water in any tonier district. Throughout apéro and dinner hours, the tables are reliably filled with locals having fun with easy cheese and charcuterie plates, or one of many restaurant’s restricted important programs (sometimes a alternative between hen and a sausage). Le Vin Au Vert is a discreet vacation spot for anybody for whom meals is an accompaniment to wine, not vice versa.

Opinions of curiosity
Wine Terroirs (2012) “… a superb and relaxed caviste/wine bar …They use contemporary merchandise and the menu is brief and easy…”
Not Consuming Poison in Paris (2012) “… a magnetically down-to-earth cave-à-manger… the choice of mostly-natural wines at Le Vin Au Vert is among the many least expensive I’ve seen in a high quality institution in Paris…”
John Talbott (2010) “Each of us then selected to have the caillette ardéchoise… Not dangerous, however nothing to put in writing house about. Our wines, alternatively have been bio, pure, unfiltered, and so on; a white sauvignon and a crimson Rhone, and fairly good.”
Le Figaro (2009) “Sans aucune prétention à réinventer le style…”
