Book with PearlWhy go
Le Wine Bar by Le Vintage is a practical pick for a wine-led evening in Reims, especially if the rest of the trip is built around Champagne houses, dinner, or train timing. Its Star Wine List recognition gives it a clearer reason to book than a generic bar stop, though it is better treated as a drinks-focused plan than a full meal.
About Le Wine Bar by Le Vintage
Le Wine Bar by Le Vintage is a Reims evening option to shortlist when the plan calls for a wine bar rather than a fully documented restaurant plan. The verified information supports planning around its city, dress code, hours, recognition, but not around a specific menu, price point, seating setup, or broader service format.
The clean recommendation: consider it for an evening stop in Reims. The clearest verified trust signal is Star Wine List recognition in 2024. Its published hours are evening-only, with opening from 5 PM or 6 PM depending on the day, closing at 11:30 PM most nights and at midnight on Friday and Saturday.
Choose it when the verified details fit your evening plan
If the plan requires a confirmed food reservation, start with our full Reims restaurants guide and use this as an evening possibility to confirm directly. If the plan is to compare venues, keep it in the same shortlist as Au Bon Manger, La Vertu, Le Coq Rouge.
For planning, the case is simple: do not assume a published price range, food format, seating arrangement, or broader drinks program from the verified information alone. What is confirmed is the venue, its Reims location, smart-casual dress code, evening hours, Star Wine List recognition in 2024. If the group is comparing different kinds of evening stops, Bar La Rotonde may be another option to research separately.
Use it as an evening option, then cross-shop by mood
The schedule makes Le Wine Bar by Le Vintage most useful as an evening stop: Monday from 5 PM to 11:30 PM; Tuesday through Thursday from 6 PM to 11:30 PM; Friday and Saturday from 6 PM to midnight; and Sunday from 6 PM to 11:30 PM.

The take
The Take
The Vibe
Le Wine Bar by Le Vintage sits discreetly on Place du Forum, offering a restrained, neighbourhood charm that feels deliberately apart from Reims’s tourist thoroughfares. The setting — a quieter civic square a short walk from the cathedral — gives the bar a tucked-away quality that rewards local discovery. Its double Star Wine List accreditation and considered approach to curation lend a composed, sophisticated air: this is a place where seriousness about wine meets the intimacy of a small urban square, creating an experience that is quietly impressive rather than showy.
Best For
This wine bar is ideal for visitors who want a thoughtful counterpoint to the city’s grand Champagne houses and for locals seeking a well-curated, relaxed evening. It suits date nights and low-key meetups, and it’s especially good for anyone interested in exploring a broader wine program — one that treats Champagne as one category among many. The recognition for depth and balance on the list also makes the bar a natural stop for people who want to sample serious selections without the formality of a tasting at a major house.
Ordering Tips
Trust the bar’s curation: the venue’s consecutive Star Wine List awards indicate a thoughtfully balanced selection across regions. Ask the staff for guidance if you want to move beyond the Champagne expectations that dominate Reims; the program intentionally widens scope and is designed to reward exploration. Opt for a guided suggestion from the sommelier or server to discover lesser-known producers or regional pairings — the list’s depth is the main draw, so lean on on-site expertise rather than defaulting to the obvious Champagne choices.

Bar context
How it compares in Reims
Choose Le Wine Bar by Le Vintage when wine-list credibility and easy planning matter more than a full restaurant-style evening. Compared with Au Bon Manger and La Vertu, it reads as the more direct wine-bar decision: simpler to fit around dinner, cellar visits, or a late train, less dependent on a detailed food plan.
Le Coq Rouge and The Glue Pot are better cross-shops if the group wants a broader bar mood rather than a wine-first choice. Bar La Rotonde is the safer pick for mixed groups who may want something more general. For wine-focused value, Le Wine Bar by Le Vintage is the more logical first call; for ambiance-first drinking, cross-shop the others.
