Cavistes Grenoble

Eric Esnault, a passionate wine enthusiast, has set the benchmark for a wine journey through the Alps. An Alpine arc that extends to other wine-producing countries such as Switzerland, Italy, Austria and Slovenia. So many wonderful discoveries beyond our borders, often with rare wines from little-known terroirs, to be shared with a man who knows all there is to know about the subject. In a well-appointed boutique, you'll discover some 150 wines from the Alps and 300 from other regions. A fine selection of wines without additives or sulfites, always from environmentally-friendly winemakers. Wine-tasting workshops. One of our favorite cellars.

A word of warning: L'Apogée du Vin is moving during the summer (and the writing of our guide). The address will change, but will remain in the neighborhood. It's not just the location that's changing, as the concept itself is also set to change (we're promised a hybrid concept, to be continued). What won't change is Enora Le Roy's passion for "committed" organic and biodynamic wines. Wines from passionate artisan winemakers, respectful of the environment and the terroir, that simply delight us with every sip. A graduate of the Université du Vin de Suze-la-Rousse, Enora has set up her own training organization for professionals: "Le vin sur la Lune".
