Paris is undeniably the capital of fashion, gastronomy and art, but the capital is also intimately linked to wine! The City of Light has a long history of winegrowing, dating back toGallo-Roman times. In the past, vineyards surrounded the city, notably on the hills of Montmartre and Belleville, and wine was produced in abundance for local consumption.
Today, even if Paris is no longer surrounded by vineyards, it remains a nerve center for wine lovers. Historic cellars, like those of Michelin-starred restaurants and Parisian bistros, house treasures from France's greatest wine regions - Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and more. Paris also hosts major wine events, fairs and festivals that attract thousands of wine enthusiasts every year.
And let's not forget Parisians' and tourists' love of sipping a glass of wine on a terrace when the sun shines. So, without further ado, here are our top tips and addresses for wine lovers in Paris. In moderation, of course!
