Start your tour at Le Mauzac, known for their natural whites, before continuing past the church of Sainte Genevieve built 1492-1626 and dedicated to the patron saint of Paris. Next head for a small local wine bar which looks like an old Parisian bistro with tiled floor, wooden chairs and old black and white photos on the wall.
Next stop is the Pantheon a massive temple commissioned in 1744 by Louis 15th and built by the architect Jacques-Germain Soufflot. It was originally a church, but under the revolution it became a burial place for the honored men of France. It houses the bodies of Voltaire, Rousseau, Mirabeau, Marat, Victor Hugo, Emile Zola.
The tour continues to another wine bar in the style of an old Parisian bistro before moving on to picturesque rue Mouffetard with its history, myth and mystique. Rue Mouffetard is one of the oldest streets in Paris and the street retains a village atmosphere, with a famous picturesque open market held on the lower part. It leads into Place de la Contrescarpe, made famous by Ernest Hemingway in his book about life in Paris, A Moveable Feast.
You will then visit a bar with a warm local atmosphere which looks unchanged from earlier times. A scene of the movie Amelie was shot here. You then come to the Saint Medard, a church which offers a peaceful pause . The original church was founded in 1140, as a subsidiary to the Sainte-Genevieve Church. Your last stop for a tasting is very near Saint-Medard church.
