RED Pif
Fans of natural wines will love RED Pif (‘red nose’). There’s no wine list, but they’ll help you navigate your way through hundreds of sulphite and flavour-enhancer free local and international vintages. To compliment your wine, the chic, minimalist space serves up fine French cuisine that’s expertly crafted to suit the wines that occupy RED Pif’s shelves. Popular with Prague’s stylish sippers, this is the place to go for an elegant evening out.
Bokovka
Salabka
Few Prague wine bars can boast their own vineyard and winery on site, but Salabka can. Positioned on the peak of the hilly Troja suburb with panoramic views over the city, Salabka is a sophisticated spot to sample a wide variety of wines. There are Chardonnays, Reislings and Pinot Blancs. There’s full-bodied Pinot Noir and local grapes like Neronet. There’s also a fine dining restaurant on the Salabka estate, where you can enjoy an unforgettable dinner with paired wines.
