per person
An intimate evening of French wine, regional storytelling, and thoughtful hospitality hosted in a private Parisian salon selected for atmosphere as much as location.
This sommelier-led experience journeys through four to five French wine regions, each introduced through a carefully chosen pairing of wine, artisan cheeses, and charcuterie. Rather than a restaurant tasting or formal masterclass, the evening is designed to feel personal and conversational: a table shared among curious travelers, generous pours, and the kind of setting where conversation unfolds naturally.
We host the soiree in private spaces that feel warm, discreet, and lived-in; the sort of places most visitors would never find on their own. Alongside the tasting itself, guests leave with a deeper understanding of how geography, climate, and tradition shape the wines of France.
Ideal for couples, small groups of friends, bachelorette celebrations, and corporate gatherings seeking an evening that feels both educational and intimate.
- Sommelier-led tasting of 4-5 French wines
- Paired artisan cheeses and charcuterie board
- Private venue reserved for the full experience
- Optional add-on: private transfer to and from your hotel
Arrival & Welcome Wine
Guests are welcomed with an opening glass as the evening begins at an unhurried pace. Introductions are made, the table settles, and your sommelier host frames the journey ahead.
A Journey Through French Wine Regions
The tasting moves through four to five French regions, with each wine introduced through the story of its place, the landscape, traditions, and producers behind it. Burgundy, Champagne, the Loire, Bordeaux, or the Rhone may all appear depending on the evening’s curation.
Pairings & Conversation
As each wine is poured, artisan cheeses and charcuterie are paired alongside it. The reasoning behind each pairing is explained simply and thoughtfully, leaving space for questions, conversation, and personal discovery rather than formal instruction.
Final Toast
The evening closes with a final glass and relaxed conversation around the table. Guests leave with new favorites, a deeper appreciation for regional French wine culture, and recommendations for where to continue exploring Paris by night.
