Paris Wine Tasting: Discover France in 6 Glasses
Our Paris Wine Tasting is a great way to explore and enjoy French wines and culture through 6 impeccable tastings, including Champagne. Served with sliced hams and mushroom pâté. We make it a sensorial and fun journey of discovery and pure pleasure.
While some people make this a very intellectual pursuit, we will also take some of the myths away in the process. More importantly, our professional sommelier will take you through the steps of a successful blind wine tasting – with gusto and humour and share all these tips and tricks. After this, you will be able to recognize the origin of a French wine using all your senses and before even tasting it! He will share memorable anecdotes about the wine regions you will discover – six in total, including Champagne. You will taste white and red wines, which will be served with sliced hams and bread. You will discover how to recognize aromas in wine, participate in a playful quiz and be rewarded by initiation to popping Champagne to conclude what we hope will become a cherished memory of your trip to Paris. And while a lot of fun according to all participants, we believe it is also a greatly condensed learning experience.

Lovely wine tasting class in Paris
We came here for a lovely and intimate wine tasting class with Stephan. He was incredibly helpful in giving us some great tips and techniques on wine tasting and how to identify wines from the different regions in France. Along with his humor and stories, it was a very entertaining and educational two hours which we thoroughly enjoyed. We will come back when we visit Paris again to learn some more!!

Stéphane really did a great job!
I went to Le Foodist for this wine tasting with my family (of four). We enjoyed learning about France's wine culture and talking to Stephane, the sommelier, about all the nuances of the different regions of France and how each region's wine is unique. Not only was Stephane very knowledgeable and accommodating, but he was also fun! My favorite part of the experience was learning how to open a bottle of champagne with a saber.

Discover French Culture through Other Food Experiences
Discovering culture through food is what we want to do when we travel. So we have developed all our experiences with that simple idea in mind: ensure that you learn both about the topic at hand, but also about French culture in the process. So in our food tours, we will talk about the history of various aspects of French food, in our cooking class in Paris about how certain dishes became so important in our culture. During our wine tastings, we will explore the regional differences in French culture. And, a regional residential holiday is an opportunity to deep dive French food culture to its core and foundation: the regional gastronomies, and the concept of terroir. Follow the links to explore further.
