Japadeunon

Top choice in Colmar


This new, bottle-lined wine bar is a drop of sophistication. Here you can sample and quaff wines from Alsace and elsewhere (from €3 per glass), and there are special evenings devoted to little-heard-of winemakers. The wines are accompanied by sharing plates of local cheese, pâte and charcuterie.
