David, I did a double-take when I saw this. I used to live right around the corner, on rue du Chemin Vert, and used to pass the big bottle of red every morning on my way to the Metro! Too funny.
I love this place. It used to be a 'Picon' bottle a zillion years ago, and used for publicity/advertising. The place inside is tiny and just across from a small park by the Canal St. Martin, where older gents play 'boules' all day.
