Have you noticed how almost every corner in Paris has a Nicolas wine shop?
Of course every single Paris coin also has a boulangerie, café and patisserie too...
And shoes shops - that's why Paris has so many corners.
If you love wine you've come to the right place!

Here's a wine shop in the 6th arrondissement that was formerly a...cremerie. What does that mean? A butter shop? Did they just sell creme before the discovery of cholesterol? Tant pis as they say...
Peter's Paris took me to this very old wine shop on his Montmartre tour...
I love the old facade and awning...
By the way, did you know when you're eating your petit dejeuner at your hotel in the celler and wondering why, that you are actually sitting in the building's old wine celler or cave? Yep, it's true!
Look! This very old wine shop has some new tricks up it's sleeve. Anything you see labeled "Bio" is another word for organic and rather chic these days in Paris. Correct me if I'm wrong on this...
Here's another oldish wine shop in the Passage Panorama in the 9th...
Do tell what this wine poster is about. Owls and wine? I need help here.
In the same window an adorable owl. W'as up???
A keyboard paired with Bordeaux. Who knew?
More of the same... Everyone goes to great fuss and bother with their windows in Paris. I just wish there were subtitles.
A nice end to a busy day is a stop in a wine bistro, usually identifyable by wine casks outside and red checkered cloth. You don't necessarily need a reservation either. You just waltz in.
Moi...I'm in the backyard munching on worms for my disasterous foray into the blog bcontest arena this week. But I may pop in for un verre de Brouilly quand meme...
BONJOUR PARIS VINS!!!
