Private Paris Wine Tasting Experience with Expert Sommelier

Enjoy a private French wine tasting in Paris, hosted exclusively for your party by an internationally trained expert sommelier. This personalised experience explores five carefully selected wines from across France, designed to reveal terroir, regional identity, and winemaking styles beyond the basics at your own pace.

The private tasting typically includes one sparkling wine, one white wine, two red wines, and one dessert wine, paired with a delicious cheese and charcuterie board and a thoughtfully matched dessert. With the sommelier’s full attention, guests receive tailored explanations, practical tasting techniques, and confident guidance on choosing wines for meals, celebrations, or gifts.

Focused on artisanal and small-production wines, this experience compares traditional and modern approaches while clearly explaining key concepts such as AOP wines versus Vin de France. Guests are encouraged to shape the session, spending more time on regions, grapes, or styles that interest them most. One of our most loved gourmet experiences in the city, this private wine tasting is a must-do in Paris for couples, friends, and curious wine lovers.
