The natural wine bar that quietly moved into Rue Gambetta

On Rue Gambetta, in central Biarritz, a natural wine bar has quietly set up over the past few seasons. No illuminated sign, no printed menu: just a weekly changing chalkboard and a cellar organised by region and producer. You’ll find bottles from Roussillon, Jura, Savoie, and of course the Basque Country, including several rarely distributed natural Irouléguy wines. The owner, a former sommelier from a Michelin-starred Bordeaux restaurant, talks about his bottles with a geographer’s precision. Expect to pay 6 to 12 euros a glass depending on the wine.
