The best wine bars Lisbon

It may be the black sheep of the city but we love it. It opened at the time when wine bars were slowly appearing in the city of Lisbon. When the evening comes, you'll see the praça das Flores come alive in front of Black Sheep's entrance. Indeed, the bar is very small inside and that's how it became known in the beginning: the smallest wine bar in Lisbon. Come and discover the wines of Portugal thanks to the wide selection. And if you don't know what to choose, the team will guide you according to your tastes.

It is one of the oldest bars in the upper district, ideal for conversing over an excellent musical background (the great voices of jazz, soul, blues). The classy and woody decor is the brand image of the place, as is its wine list (more than 300 references) of different Portuguese regions (by the glass or the bottle) to be accompanied by petiscos, cold cuts, cheese or a chicken croque-monsieur, inherited from the former management... Impeccable service! Be patient, sometimes you have to wait a quarter of an hour before a table becomes available!

Located on the corner of a street with bay windows that give you a view of the lively neighborhood, this bar welcomes you in a slightly rustic, retro yet elegant atmosphere. The manager, Ugne Kris, comes to us straight from the Sem restaurant and wanted to do more than just another wine bar. As a result, the tapas menu has been carefully thought out, using fresh, local ingredients for the most part. The wine selection changes regularly, so there's no wine list, just shelves with bottles and prices underneath.

Created by the same people as Vino Vero, located a few numbers down, this wine bar has become a must on Graça hill. As soon as it opens, you sit down at the counter and order food and drink. Bacaro is the Venetians' name for osterias, so you'll find some excellent Italian cured meats to accompany your glasses of wine. There's also an emphasis on finger food , with pinsas and focaccias. As for the wines, they are all natural and come from various Mediterranean countries.

This is the address for aficionados of natural wines, a trend that is really starting to take off in Lisbon. Santos is one of the neighborhoods favored by this type of establishment. Here, you can feel the "Gallic" touch, with rillettes on the tapas menu. To compete, you'll also find oysters straight from Setùbal. You can sit back and relax on the terrace, which boasts seating reminiscent of the Jardin du Luxembourg. Rest assured, the wines are Portuguese!

A French couple who have lived in Lisbon for several years decided to open this wine bar. Their aim is to select top-quality Portuguese wines from all regions, which are not necessarily well known, and to help you make some wonderful discoveries. In a beautiful room with a vaulted ceiling, you can taste the wines by the glass or by the bottle, and accompany them with tapas or charcuterie. Their must: roast Camembert. If you need any advice, the couple will be delighted to help.
