There is something special about a good wine bar and Wine & Soul is definitely a good wine bar. I learned about the bar while touring Chateau Pontet-Canet and had to check it put.
Located at 23 rue du Couvent, near the Quai, Wine & Soul has been open for about 18 months. The bar has a very cozy feel to it, with signs of music and wine all over the walls. There were no live bands on the nights I was there, but the music that was playing was fun and low key, enjoyable but not enough to drown out the conversation.
The wine selection is excellent, I found a 2006 Lafon Rochet the first night and a very nice 2001 Brane-Cantenac the second night.
The food is also excellent with an assortment of tapas a well as traditional French faire.
Of course, what makes any bar great is the people and here Wine & Soul really excels. The guys that run the bar are passionate about the wine they serve and are genuinely friendly. If you are looking for someplace to have an enjoyable evening of wine and food I highly recommend Wine & Soul.
