Natural wine is the drink of the moment, and nowhere is that more true than Paris.\u00a0Using only natural, endemic yeasts for fermentation and eschewing filtering and sulfites, natural wine\u2014known as vin nature <\/em>or vin vivant <\/em>(living wine) in French<\/strong>\u2014tends to boast a lighter, fruitier flavor than most conventional vintages.<\/p>\r\n

Its aromas occasionally veer towards barnyardy or animal-like, and it\u2019s sometimes susceptible to light effervescence. When done properly, natural wine is a delightful discovery. That said, making natural wine correctly is not an easy task<\/strong>. For every fantastic bottle of natural wine, there are nine subpar bottles that could turn you off of these living wines for good.<\/p>\r\n

To make sure you\u2019re only getting the best, here are five natural wine bars and restaurants in Paris<\/strong> where the bottles are sure to be top-notch.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Top Bars for Natural Wine in Paris<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Le Saint-S\u00e9bastien<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The 400-bottle-strong cellar at this 11th<\/sup> arrondissement bistro<\/strong> is filled with a variety of bottles, some natural and some not.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The expert front-of-house team at Le Saint S\u00e9bastien<\/a> will be happy to point you in the right direction of a glass or a bottle that pairs perfectly with Chef Robert Mendoza\u2019s plant-forward, internationally inspired plates. Regions not often seen on other wine menus, including Jura<\/a> and Alsace<\/a>, are the stars of this wine list.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We’re a little bit obsessed with the wine selection at Le Saint S\u00e9bastien\u2014no wonder it’s one of our favorite natural wine bars in Paris. Photo credit: VortBot<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n

Septime La Cave<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This wine bar outpost<\/a> of the famed Septime restaurant<\/a> is an excellent place to try a vast variety of natural wines without also committing to a sit-down dinner.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Elbow your way up to the bar to sample one of the ever-changing by-the-glass selections<\/strong>, and choose a simple cheese or charcuterie dish to accompany it. Don\u2019t miss the selection of vin orange<\/em>: these skin-contact wines<\/a> made from white wine grapes offer a unique umami funk.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Martin Boire et Manger<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Martin Boire et Manger<\/a>, on boulevard du Temple, is a local favorite where the crowds regularly spill out into the street<\/strong>, like one big block party. With a multi-page wine list and chalkboard menu of inexpensive, locally sourced small plates, this is one experience you won’t want to miss.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

What’s more, we love the way that sommeli\u00e8re Julie Brenet offers a few words about the character of each wine right on the menu. Even if you\u2019re unfamiliar with a specific bottle, you\u2019ll have a bit more of an idea of what you\u2019re getting yourself into before taking a sip.<\/p>\r\n

Martin is a place that knows its wine, but it’s far from pretentious\u2014coming here is a guaranteed good time.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Badaboum<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n

\r\n\r\n<\/h3>\r\n

Located just next door to the nightclub of the same name, this contemporary French restaurant <\/a>has a phenomenal selection of natural wines.<\/strong> Order yours by the glass or by the bottle, and pair it with the creative small plates designed to share.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\r\n<\/h3>\r\n

The food here is unsurprisingly wonderful, thanks to the team from Les Enfants du March\u00e9<\/a>. Plus, the nightlife ambiance from next door spills over into the dining room for a good time guaranteed.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n\r\n<\/h3>\r\n

Naturellement<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

So far, natural wine bars may seem like a Right Bank trend, but there are a few spots to the south serving up these fragrant wines as well. Naturellement<\/a> is one of them.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Italian owner Giovanni Napolitano naturally <\/em>skews more towards the wines (and dishes) of his native land, with wonderful Italian bottles and glasses to pair with cheese, charcuterie, and more<\/strong>. An expert in all things Italian wine, Giovanni has something for everyone\u2014including fans of robust reds, which can be harder to come by in the natural wine world.<\/p>\r\n
