Les Caves du Panthéon are missing! The selection of wine is excellent, Olivier is wonderful, and the atmosphere is always great due to the nice staff and the regulars hanging about.
174, rue Saint-Jacques, 75005
Thanks for the comment, L. We’ll continue to research and add caves to the list and welcome any other suggestions.
There are a couple of nice cavistes in my ‘hood that also serve food (assiettes de charcuterie et fromages) and charge a small corkage fee if you decide to have your wine sur place.
5 eme Cru – 7 rue Cardinal Lemoine 75005
Les Pages du Vin – 44 rue de Boulangers 75005
P.S., – both places are run by people who speak fluent English.
When you’re overcome by the richness of the selections available in the caves of Paris you might rely on “Madame” at Le Rubis to select something from their cellar to perfectly match your menu.
From my first visit in 2002, and every subsquent visit since (and there have been many), I have been completely charmed by the Les Grande Caves location on Rue Poncelet. The proprietor, Jerome Huard might be the most charming Parisian I’ve ever met, and he knows his wine. He will find you something to drink whatever your price point and taste and so far he has never steered me wrong. He is generous with the tasting. I took my parents to his shop on our visit last fall and they went back every day of our five day stay in Paris. It’s tiny, but so good, and on a market street with many other fine stores.
