Paris is a great place to go wine tasting. Sparkling Champagne, vintage reds or crisp white wines – whichever you prefer, follow the lead of an expert sommelier and you’ll never drink cask wine again.

There are three simple rules: look, smell, taste! At this stage the professional taster will spit the wine out, while the amateur taster will swallow then come back for more.

Wine tastings are held in the intimate setting of a historic wine cellar, led by professional sommeliers who are passionate, personable and charming. The wines are accompanied by cheese, a variety of breads and savories.

Santé – your health!

Doing what: Champagne Region Day Trip from Paris by Minivan

This trip was beautiful. We picked three trips through Viator and all were exceptional. The tour guide (Selena) was very well informed and the comparison between a small family owned winery and Moet-Chandon was a great contrast. The church tour was wonderful.

Doing what: Champagne Tasting on a Seine River Cruise

Have to give it full marks, like so many other reviews. Very knowledgeable sommelier and excellent top of the range champagnes. Very generous too. Definitely a must-do if you're in Paris.

This wine and champagne tour was a great experience. So glad I did this while in Paris. We sampled wines from all over the country. The tasting was informative in a comfortable atmosphere. I really enjoyed learning about the wines from the various regions of France. I would highly recommend this tour as something you must do while in Paris.
