Au Cœur des Terroirs – Award-Winning Wine Tasting Bar & Boutique in Nice — Restaurant in Nice

What a hidden gem we discovered! We stumbled upon this charming shop while out exploring and simply wanted a place to sit and unwind for a bit. What we found was so much more than we expected. Instead of just enjoying a glass of wine, we were treated to a thoughtfully curated flight of delicious wines, perfectly paired with local meats and cheeses.

As a novice wine drinker, I truly appreciated the guidance I received in selecting wines. I not only learned about each one but also gained a bit of fascinating history along the way. At no point did I feel out of place—instead, I left with a deeper appreciation for wine and a fabulous bottle of bubbly in hand.

Remy was an absolute gem. We thoroughly enjoyed our conversation with him—his warmth, knowledge, and genuine passion for wine made our visit unforgettable. What was meant to be a brief stop turned into nearly three wonderful hours of great wine, engaging stories, and delightful company. Plus he gave us a great dinner recommendation. Would come back to Nice to just go...

Unexpected Find, Excellent Wine

We came across this place by chance—just saw the sign on the street and decided to give it a try because it looked cute from the outside. Turned out to be a great decision.

As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the proprietor, who was not only friendly but clearly knew their stuff. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable—not too formal, not too loud.

The wine list is seriously impressive, especially for wines by the glass. They also offer flights, which is great if you want to try a few different things. Everything we had was unique and high-quality—no filler wines here. The owner guided us through the options without being pushy, and the recommendations were spot-on.

We also ordered a small plate of meats to go with the wine, which was exactly what we were looking for—simple, good, and well-matched.

Overall, a great spot for anyone who enjoys trying new wines without the usual pretentiousness. Would absolutely recommend and...

We stopped in on an early weekday afternoon as a group of three and did two different wine flights in our group. My mom and I did the Provence Rose Flight and my dad did the Tour de France. Both had good variety and were very tasty! Baptiste, the owner, was a lovely host, taking time to explain the wines, the winemaking process, and even getting to know us, asking where we were from etc. We felt very welcome and enjoyed about 2 hours of time sipping on wine Baptiste even brought out an additional wine for my dad to try when he mentioned he was more of a red wine fan. We purchased a few bottles of wine to take back with us too! We actually visited a winery in the area the following day, and while they were very kind, we got much more education from Baptiste than during out...
