Latin Quarter Unbottled: 2 secret vineyards visit & 3 wine tastings in Paris
Here is what's in store for you
This tour takes you on an insider's journey to some of the best wine bars in the city, tantalizing your tastebuds and awakening all your senses!
The experience starts in the second oldest park in Europe where you'll discover one of the city's hidden vineyards, you'll make your way past the spot where the Abbaye Saint Victor once stood and where the wines of Paris were stored until the 1950s. The first tasting is held outdoors at another hidden vineyard. The Latin Quarter undoubtedly has the longest wine history of any neighborhood in the city. From the vineyards planted by the Romans on the Montagne Saint Geneviève, maintained and expanded by Cistercian monks, through the Abbaye Saint Victor, the wine storage of the Halle aux Vins and the taverns of the Place de la Contrescarpe and the rue Mouffetard, wine has been part of daily life for more than 2000 years. Somewhat later than other quarters of the city, the natural wine movement is slowly taking root and bringing with it a renaissance.
This tour includes 3 wine tastings, 2 in wine shops/wine bars and one sparkling wine tasting. The tastings are accompanied by seasonal snacks (platter of cheeses with bread, seasonal vegetables).
