- After getting your first wine directly from your 9 barrels, you will learn the basics of wine tasting. – Go to the heart of the cellar and its century-old table, where your superb aperitif boards await you to discover a second Wine.

You don't think the moment is frozen? What better way to get out of your daydream (or better yet, dive in) than with bubbles?

    Awesome!

    Excellent experience! Maxime is very passionate and a great teacher! We learned a lot of things. Above all, it was a moment of sharing among enthusiasts. Bravo and thank you, Maxime! Harry & Charlotte

    Maxime is very friendly and has a strong command of the subject! He effectively introduces the basics of tasting without overwhelming with information. The evening turned into a very pleasant discussion; I recommend it!

    A beautiful wine getaway at the Loire Valley vineyards in Beaujolais!

    Two hours that go by far too quickly. This wine tasting course featuring five wines is an invitation to travel, from the mineral freshness of the Loire to the fruity indulgence of Beaujolais — a well-thought-out, progressive itinerary that tells a story. The food and wine pairings were simply impeccable: each bite seemed to have been designed to enhance the glass that accompanied it. One leaves with the desire to recreate the experience at home — and with far fewer excuses for poorly pairing dishes. The teaching style is accessible without ever being condescending: one learns, exchanges ideas, makes mistakes sometimes, and that is perfectly fine. The friendliness is present from start to finish. And what a wonderful idea to have this festive touch as a conclusion! A way to remind us that wine, before being a subject of study, is above all a shared pleasure. The final word was sparkling — as it should be. 🥂 A beautiful discovery that we recommend without hesitation.

    Evening Oenology Course, 5 Wines and Aperitif Boards with 1 Sommelier: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.

    How much does Evening Oenology Course, 5 Wines and Aperitif Boards with 1 Sommelier cost?

    +

    Prices start at $62 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Evening Oenology Course, 5 Wines and Aperitif Boards with 1 Sommelier take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paris is not rushed.

    Is Evening Oenology Course, 5 Wines and Aperitif Boards with 1 Sommelier worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Evening Oenology Course, 5 Wines and Aperitif Boards with 1 Sommelier?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Evening Oenology Course, 5 Wines and Aperitif Boards with 1 Sommelier suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Evening Oenology Course, 5 Wines and Aperitif Boards with 1 Sommelier?

    +

    Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paris can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paris and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Evening Oenology Course, 5 Wines and Aperitif Boards with 1 Sommelier start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paris within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Paris?

    +

    Paris rewards travelers who book ahead. The headline museums sell timed entry weeks out, the best food walks cap at eight people, and the Seine cruises that are worth doing are the ones that leave after sunset. Everything below is scored by the Outty Ranking so you can tell a genuine local favorite from a coach-tour filler in a single glance. On Outty we rank every Paris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based), Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Paris?

    +

    April to June and September to October, when queues thin out and terraces stay open late. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Paris?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Evening Oenology Course, 5 Wines and Aperitif Boards with 1 Sommelier?

    +

    Included: Oenology course with a professional sommelier; Meals; Alcoholic beverages; and Air-conditioned cellar. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    What languages is Evening Oenology Course, 5 Wines and Aperitif Boards with 1 Sommelier offered in?
