The City of Light is famously known for its abundance of cave-à-manger – wine bar restaurants. What sets La Robe et Le Palais apart from hundreds of others, however, lies in its refined collection of all natural wines.
In the United States, restaurants typically boast wine cellars from floor to ceiling, at times, even in shiny aquarium-like glass towers. There’s something rustically charming about a Parisian wine cave, particularly the one at La Robe et Le Palais where 8,000 – 10,000 bottles of worldly stories are alluringly stored in its concealed basement.
Some bottles come from Greece, Georgia, Italy and many, as expected, have traveled from all parts of France. Each is covered in debris from the stonewalls of the cellar, each has a different story waiting to be unraveled by the palate. Want a first dynamic white wine made in Burgundy? Then taste the Domaine de la Bongran Grand Vin de Bourgogne. The restaurant also carries Anjou wine 2007 made by René Mosse – the most famous winemaker in Loire Valley, France.
Nineteen years ago, La Robe et Le Palais opened its doors with a simple mission in mind: serving wines that are all about the soil. No chemicals, no technological interventions. A dedicated focus surrounding all natural wines that are organically farmed and grapes that are grown without physical manipulation in the winemaking process.
Located in the 1èr arrondissement, La Robe et Le Palais also serves a delectable bistrot menu fitting for Parisians and today’s travelers yearning for authentic feasts.
