It was an engaging demonstration of many wines and wine regions. Thierry is clearly knowledgeable as well as funny and articulate. I've attended several wine tasting events in Paris and this was one of the best. Rue des Boulangers felt more like a very wide alley than a street, so be prepared for that. The event is an easy walk from Jussieu Metro stop as Rue des Boulangers is right across the street from the Metro.
Thanks Nancy! Yes rue des Boulanger is a charming cabblestone street created in the year 1250! but cars and taxi can still drive it. Cheers Thierry
Excellent experience. We did 6 tastings 3 red 2 white and one champagne each one better than the next. Sommelier was exceptional with an incredible amount if knowledge would highly recommend also great value for the price point.
Thank you for very nice review, Michelle. Cheers Thierry
Was one of our favorite things on our trip. Thierry was amazing - super knowledgeable and fun. The wines (and the champagne) were all really great. I'm hoping to find some in the US. We got cheese platters and a charcuterie board as well. The cheeses were unbelievable, and he told us which ones were best with each wine as we went through the tasting. We are totally obsessed now with the butter and have running arouneed trying to find equivalent cheese at home. He even recommended local restaurants for dinner. The store is so cute too. I've done a lot of wine tastings and this ranks among the topsl Definitely a 5/5
Brilliant , very informative . I would bring friends here when I am in Paris again . The host was knowledgable and the wine was delicious . The place has a homely feel to it . Definitely recommend !
Thanks Gavin, comeback whenever you want! Cheers Thierry
We had booked this tasting after a different tasting fell through and let me start off with I am glad it did. Me and my girlfriend ended up with a solo tasting and it was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable and personable. All of our questions were answered and it was genuinely the best experience of our entire trip. He also had other recommendations on other experiences we could try. Overall just an amazing class, experience, and person! BOOK THIS EXPERIENCE!!!!
Thank you for your kind words, Quin. I try to make each tasting session personable and I like to share my passion for wine. I'm gald you've enjoyed it. Cheers Thierry
We had a fantastic evening with Thierry, he was a great host and really helps you appreciate the wines you're drinking without being overbearing with information. The setting is really relaxed and the whole group had a really good time. And most importantly, the wines were delicious. 100% recommended!
We were a small group of just three, which made the class feel very personal and engaging. The sommelier, Thierry, was extremely knowledgeable about French wines and the regions they come from. He explained everything clearly and simply—very friendly and approachable without being pretentious. We started with Champagne, then moved on to a white from the Loire Valley and another from Burgundy, followed by three reds from Bourgogne, Bordeaux, and Languedoc-Roussillon. Each wine was unique and came from smaller, less mainstream wineries, which made the tasting even more interesting. We learned how to identify different flavours and compare the characteristics of various wines and regions. This was the best wine class we’ve ever attended, and we would absolutely recommend it to anyone interested in French wine!
Thanks for your very complete and detailled review. I'm delighted to hear that it's the best wine class you've ever attended. It was a pleasure to receive you. Cheers, Thierry
This was a very good experience. Host is knowledgeable and a good teacher. Nice balance of learning about the French wine business, how to taste wine, and enjoying a variety of wines.
Thanks for your review. Thierry
The sommelier was extremely knowledgeable about wine and the regions they came from. His presentation on where the grapes were grown, how it was made and why they tasted the way they did was excellent!! He was very friendly and enjoyed interacting with the patrons. He clearly has a passion for his expertise! We would highly recommend the experience!!!!
Thanks for your very kind review, Jeff. Cheers! Thierry
Great wine tasting and I learned so much about French wine. Very generous with knowledge and wine servings. Recommend to wine lovers of all levels.
Thanks Graeme, Cheers, Thierry
