    Jérôme was amazing! He brought out a map and taught me a bit of history of the wine in the country. He let me try red and white wine! He made sure that they were very different in taste to give me a full experience. The cured meats, cheeses, and bread was fresh! He too taught me how to pair these with wines! He is very knowledgeable and impressive. I definitely bought a bottle at the end!!! He was awesome and will definitely recommend you all attend! He is so passionate about wines!

    Fun wine tasting in Saint Germaine

    Abby_K, Feb 2026
    Fun - great host, he was knowledgeable and taught us about the different regions without being "teachy" if you know what I mean. Would recommend!

    Amazing Experience

    Great tasting in brilliant area of Paris

    Will_B, Jun 2025
    We had a great time here and we were very pleased that we were able to reschedule to another date easily. The wines were very nice and the hosts and the other guests were very friendly. One thing to be aware of is that we went on a Friday evening and as we were the only none French speakers the tasting was predominately delivered in French, with a shorter explanation in English for us after.

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Thank you so much for your kind review! We're delighted to hear that you had a great time and that rescheduling was smooth and easy. It's wonderful that you enjoyed both the wines and the company of the hosts and other guests. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the language during the tasting. While we always strive to make all our guests feel included, your comment is a helpful reminder, and we’ll continue to work on improving the balance between French and English explanations, especially on evenings with a mixed-language group. We hope to welcome you again soon, maybe for a fully English session next time!

    Great experience!

    Kimberly_R, Jun 2025
    Learned some very interesting things about wine! All the wines were excellent and the charcuterie had the perfect pairings. Truly unique experience.

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you learned something new and enjoyed both the wines and the perfectly paired charcuterie. It's always a pleasure to share our passion for wine through a unique and memorable experience. We hope to welcome you back for more discoveries soon !

    A great experience

    Emma_D, Feb 2025
    We had fun and learnt so much about wine, exactly what you hope from a wine tasting tour. The host was knowledgeable and funny.

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're so glad you had fun and learned a lot, that’s exactly what we aim for in every tasting. It’s great to hear that you enjoyed the host’s knowledge and sense of humor. We’d love to welcome you back for more wine adventures in the future!

    Thibault is awesome, fun time wine tasting!

    Frances_M, Feb 2025
    If you’re interested in wine, or learning about wine, this was great. Small venue but added to the intimate fun nature. Served wine and cheeses also.

    Response from Host, Feb 2025

    Thank you for your kind comment. We are delighted that you enjoyed our establishment and the wine tasting.

    Cisca_B, Feb 2025
    It’s a nice predinner activity at 6:30 pm. if you’re staying in the Saint Germaine area. Thibault was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his wines. My only minor complaint was that they stopped the presentation when other customers came in the shop.

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We're so pleased to hear that you enjoyed the tasting as a pre-dinner activity and appreciated Thibault’s knowledge and passion for wine. Your feedback about the interruptions during the presentation is well noted, we truly value comments like yours as they help us improve. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again soon for an even smoother experience!

    A must for wine experts and novices!

    Graham_C, Oct 2024
    Our host was extremely knowledgeable about wine. The event was both insightful and relaxed. Delicious wine and a beautiful store.

    Good wine, interesting info & cozy atmosphere

    Erika_P, Oct 2024
    Friday evening, cozy wine shop in a nice Paris neighbourghood, good wine and very friendly host with enology background - could do anytime again!😊

    Excellent wine tasting experience

    Karen_G, May 2024
    Our host was the best; knowledgeable and experienced. The setting was small and intimate. We had a thoroughly wonderful time. We would do this again if we ever have the opportunity.

    Atmospheric place

    Yuliia_S, May 2024
    Atmospheric place. It was interesting to learn about the origin of different varieties of wine. My recommendation

    Wonderful Wine Tasting

    Brigitte_H, Mar 2024
    Although I have been to Paris many times before, as I was traveling solo this time, I was looking to do something different than a tourist haunt. I've studied wine and work in the industry, so I did a wine tasting at a tiny little wine shop in Saint Germain des Pres. The event was offered in English and the owner was accommodating as I was the only English speaking person in the group. I have a limited understanding of French and most times I understood what he was saying to the rest of the group. This is definitely something I would do again with my husband the next time we are in Paris.

    La maison es BON

    Jeffery_B, Feb 2024
    This wine tasting provided great details and a friendly environment. Tristian was very knowledgeable!

    Great experience

    Erik_R, Nov 2023
    We had a group of 6 and really enjoyed the tastings and reviews of the wine regions. The owner was very knowledgeable and provided some excellent recommendations for wine to take home. Would recommend

    Response from Host, Nov 2023

    thank you very much for your reply. Always happy to exchange and share with a group of wine lovers!

    Feel Cheated

    Jeanne_S, Oct 2023
    We thought it was very informative. We were only offered very limited “snacks” and the wine tasting only used one glass. Every other tasting we’ve been on had different glasses for every new wine. Also water to drink in between wines. But it still was interesting. The problem was that we walked past the wine shop several days later and saw a sign advertising a wine tasting at the same shop with a full buffet dinner for 5 euros less per person then what we paid for the “snacks”. Not a very good way to do business. We feel a bit taken advantage of.

    Response from Host, Oct 2023

    Thanks for your feedback. Indeed, it can be interesting to have several glasses. Our reception venue being very well located, but small in size, it is complicated to put a glass for each wine. In addition, our priority being the quality and diversity of the wines offered (we serve between 5 and 8 depending on the theme), it is easier to have a single glass, which you can rinse with water. In any case, it was a pleasure to receive you!

    Refreshing!!!

    Pepe_F, Sep 2023
    The one on one attention given by the host. He explained everything in common terms that we could understand.

    Brilliant Wine Tasting experience

    Craig_W, Sep 2023
    Our wine expert was very knowledgeable and made the whole experience fun and interesting.n the food platter and wine selections paired extremely well. And the wines selected where afford. 10/10 Highly recommended

    Not recommended

    Wendy_F, Jul 2023
    The tour guide was absent for most of the tasting and was not very knowledgeable.We were poured wine, he pointed out the region on a map and then left to attend to other business.

    Response from Host, Jul 2023

    Hi Wendy, thank you for your message. I recognize that that evening I had many things to deal with at the same time and that I could not take care of you as well as I would have liked. Your comment is therefore fair in terms of the lack of attention you have been given. However, you had 7 wines served, a buffet, all commented and explained, including a great Bordeaux vintage 1972. For this level of wine and the price you paid, you will not find better anywhere else.

    Wine tasting time!

    Jermaine_W, Jul 2023
    Had a great time at this winery. Lot of great history to learn about each wine and how it was produced.

    Super great experience.

    Rachel_M, May 2023
    Alain was our sommelier and was fantastic. Explained things so well. Great person. We had a wonderful time.

    They were too late and in...

    Dennis_v, Dec 2022
    They were too late and in our opinion very expensive for what you get. Won’t suggest it to anyone. Sorry

    Response from Host, Dec 2022

    Hi Dennis, we understand your frustration. You came a group of 6 men to celebrate for a stag party. Your expectation was to be able to drink until more thirsty, but this is neither our philosophy nor what we offer in our establishment. I think there was a misunderstanding, you should have gone to party in a bar and not signed up for a wine tasting.

    VERY DISAPPOINTED

    tricia, Nov 2022
    Wasnt very please with this event, the pictures are way off from the real setting of the tasting. The tasting was done right inside the wine shop ( which is extremely small ) its was only 1 table / wine barrel which only seat 2 people, the middle of the shop had shelves with wine, the area was so tight it wasnt a place to sit the cheese & meat platter, so the instructor had to place it on top of the wine shelve in the middle. So i can say it started off well ( set aside the tight space ) but about 15-30mins into the tastings a few customers in to purchase wine, which one stayed about 20mins talking to the instructor & we all was left just sitting and waiting, by time they was done talking we had to leave for dinner

    Response from Host, Dec 2022

    Thanks for your feedback. Indeed that evening we had a lot of people there and you are right we were not able to take care of you in optimal conditions. Nevertheless, I hope you were able to appreciate the quality of the wines served, which is always far superior to what you can find elsewhere, simply because we are passionate and we like to share good things!

    Must book! Great experience

    Lisa_M, Nov 2022
    This tour was absolutely amazing. My friends and I learned so much about the history, flavors, and origins of wines. The atmosphere was intimate for a group of girls doing a wine tasting

    Great experience

    szill2012, Jul 2022
    Chris and Marie were wonderful hosts. Chris told us about the wines we were talking and was so personable. Marie offered her thoughts about the wines as well. We had a great time.

    Fun and knowledgeable

    Crystal_H, Jul 2022
    It was so much fun, and the location was quaint and easy to find. She was knowledgeable about the different regions, and the tastings were great picks.

    Viator sucks- but this wine tasting is amazing

    Michael_M, Jun 2022
    We truly enjoyed our time with Jerome. He was the most knowledgeable expert we have ever had the pleasure learning wine information form. You may ask why not 5 stars? Because Viator provided us with the totally wrong address which made us trek several miles in the wrong direction, and then literally return back to where we started within 100 meters. So totally go with Jerome but do not trust Viator at all.

    Recommend if you love wine

    Matthew_B, May 2022
    Our hosts were very knowledgeable and friendly. Great selection of wines and cheeses and the location was very charming.

    Super recommended

    Jacqueline_V, Dec 2025
    Excellent experience! Truth be told, a pleasure to hear from a person who knows about wines and is passionate about them! We learned a lot about French wines, very good food and Great atmosphere. I highly recommend it! In fact, we ended up buying a wine to go.
