Rouge Gorge
The bulk of the wines served at this inviting bar designed by local favorite Zébulon Perron (wood walls, narrow marble bar top) hail from Burgundy, the Loire Valley, and the Rhone, though some of the most memorable selections come from less likely places, like Greece. A food menu designed to complement the pours includes boudin parmentier, a blood sausage shepherd’s pie, oysters, tuna poke, and croquettes.
