About this tour
Spend two hours in the Eiffel Tower district learning how the French actually eat—pairing six regional cheeses with four wines. Hervé guides you through tasting techniques, regional distinctions, and the logic behind matching cheese to wine. You'll taste blindfolded, eat fresh bread from a local bakery, and leave understanding why these pairings matter. Designed for people who'd rather eat like a Parisian than visit one more monument.
Highlights
- Taste six French cheeses with four carefully chosen wines
- Blind-tasting games reveal what your palate actually prefers
- Learn which regions produce what, and why it matters
- Fresh bakery bread with generous cheese portions
- Small group format in the 7th arrondissement
- Expert guidance on recognising and pairing techniques
What to expect
You'll gather in an intimate space near the Eiffel Tower for a two-hour session that feels more dinner party than classroom. Hervé walks you through each cheese and wine combination, explaining the regions and production methods. Then comes the fun bit: blind tastings where you guess what you're eating before he reveals it. You're tasting proper portions—enough bread and cheese to feel satisfied—and sipping wine at a pace that lets you actually taste it rather than rush through. The whole thing balances education with pleasure; you'll absorb real knowledge without it feeling like work.
Good to know
Only those 18+ can drink alcohol. The space is fully wheelchair accessible with accessible public transport nearby. Groups are kept small, so book ahead. Bring an appetite—the portions are generous. No need for wine expertise beforehand; curiosity matters more.
