Our love for wine

Why we also serve our nicest wines as half bottles

We're crazy about good wine and curate our list ourselves. Many wines come from Jurjen, but we're just as happy working with growers and small traders, and buying in ourselves too. A bottle on the table is, for us, the ultimate Italian experience: you keep topping up, the conversation keeps going, and the evening lasts longer than planned.

To keep that culture accessible to everyone, we also offer our nicest wines as 375 ml half bottles. That way two people can enjoy a serious Barolo or Rioja without opening a full bottle, and still try a second wine.

Wine and food

Drinks in Groningen, with bar snacks that make the wine better

Wine really shines with something alongside it. Our bar snacks are made to share, so fill up the table and let the team recommend a glass or half bottle to match.

Glamembert fondue

Warm oven-baked camembert with apricot and pecan, served with bread. Sweet, salty and creamy all at once: lovely with a fresh white or a juicy red.

Sausage-and-cheese board

Groningen dry sausage and cubes of aged cheese, just tuck in together at the table. Works with almost any wine, from a crisp white to a robust red.

Kraneweg, Schildersbuurt

Easy-going atmosphere in our corner building in the Schildersbuurt

Our wine bar sits in a corner building on the Kraneweg, right in the Schildersbuurt and a short walk from the centre and the Noorderplantsoen. Inside it's warm and relaxed: neighbours, students, colleagues after work and regulars all mixed together, with soft music and tables you can easily pull up a chair to.

When the weather's nice, our sunny terrace is the best spot in the neighbourhood. The afternoon sun stays there well into the evening, so a glass of wine with a board tends to last longer than planned.
