Gutenbergs Terrace

Perched atop a cobbled street in Riga’s Old Town, Gutenbergs Terase serves modern Latvian grill with a view. Chef Ingus Feldmanis turns local produce into effortlessly craveable dishes and flavors that make the cityscape taste even better.

Then there’s the wine. Sandis Solims’ curated list is a love letter to Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Champagne – a concise, classic collection that never overwhelms. Whether you’re chasing grower gems, celebrated French houses, or hidden mature surprises, the terrace setting turns every sip into a rooftop moment. Food, wine, and the Old Town skyline – some views demand a toast.

Gutenbergs Terase recommends: 2020 Birgit Braunstein Chardonnay Ried Guttenberg Leithaberg.

Our choice: Start with a rarity – Pascal Agrapart’s Vénus Champagne, one of the greatest Blanc de Blancs from the great 2016 vintage (tip: its price at the restaurant is way below the market price!). Wash down Gutenbergs’ great steaks with something as juicy as 2014 Château La Lagune from Bordeaux’s Left Bank!
