What to expect
You'll gather in a boutique space where the sommelier—a well-known Paris figure—guides you through five wines without pretence or script. Each tasting builds your understanding of French wine culture and technique through conversation rather than lecture. Cheeses and bread arrive as you go, letting flavours interact naturally. The mood is fun and informal; questions are encouraged and tangents welcome. By the end, you'll have tasted serious wines but remember it more for the person leading it than the formality.
