Giclette
Wine bar — La Roquette (Paris)
About
Giclette is a wine bar and caviste created by Guillaume Dupré, a prominent figure in Paris's natural wine scene, and Kaori Endo, a Japanese chef from the nearby Petit Keller. Located on rue Keller in the 11th arrondissement, this hybrid venue combines wine expertise with Japanese-inspired small plates: generous vegetarian bentos, inarizushi with capers and Cantabrian anchovies, mentaiko mochi-gnocchi, and hearty futomaki. Evenings feature Japanese specialties alongside Ardèche charcuterie, cheeses, and oysters. The warm bistro atmosphere, with communal seating and counter service, encourages conviviality. The wine selection—from draft options like muscadet and carignan to bottled selections—reflects Dupré's refined palate, with a 9€ corkage fee. An establishment where culinary and vinicultural passion truly shine.
