Description

Learn how to taste and identify wine on a fun and informative wine-tasting experience of French wines in Paris. Discover the wine regions of France in the company of an expert sommelier.
The tasting starts at 5pm in our 17th-century wine cellar just nearby Le Louvre. You will taste six different wines from 6 different wine regions in France. Just sit back and enjoy the french tasting with the Ô Chateau style! With a unique and refreshing approach, our sommelier will take you through a variety of themes to build up your wine knowledge. Our masterclass is both informative and fun. In just two hours, you will taste some excellent French wines whilst learning a lot about wine in France. They will teach you how Champagne is made, how to taste a wine, and how to read a French wine label. You will also be taken through the main wine regions of France – the grapes they grow, the style of wine they make, and clarify concepts of terroir or appellation for example. Then at 7pm or so, we’ll let you go – vaguely tipsy maybe - for the rest of your Parisian evening!
This will be the opportunity for you to ask all your questions:

How is champagne made?
Where do all the different grape varieties grow?
What are tannins?
What are the new wine trends?
What are the best food and wine pairings?
How do you taste wine?

All the wines you will taste during the masterclass are available to buy (plus many more too!) Just ask your sommelier. Santé et bon appétit!

Possible add-ons: cheese or charcuterie platter (+15€) on site.
