Beverage Options
Yes. We offer three thoughtfully curated, seasonal pairings:
- Classy (€190)
A journey through elegant, expressive wines, primarily from Slovenia, but with the occasional border-crossing. These wines are balanced, textural, and grounded in sustainable practices. - Funky (€190)
Uninhibited and bold. This pairing features biodynamic wines, artisan producers, and an explorative spirit. Expect wild fermentation, low-intervention wines, and the occasional cocktail. - Juicy (€135, non-alcoholic)
Our signature non-alcoholic pairing features seasonal juices, wild infusions, house-brewed kombuchas, and other ferments. Ingredients are foraged by our dedicated forager, and produced entirely in-house by our team.
Guests are also welcome to explore our wine list or bring your own bottle (corkage fee: €60). Our sommelier is always happy to guide you.
