Paris Wine and Cheese Tasting from Mouffetard Market

This wine and cheese tasting in Paris begins at Mouffetard Market, an old market of the Latin Quarter. Chef Sommelier Alex, your guide, makes the introductions to local food producers and passes on the stories behind their products, then leads you to a restaurant nearby for the tasting itself.

At the table you taste six cheeses from France alongside three wines, red and white, and learn how the French match and enjoy them. Blind tastings and games keep the two hours lively, and you leave knowing how a French meal is meant to be shared and how to behave at the table.

• A walk through Mouffetard Market, with its shops and historic stores
• Six cheeses and three wines
• Bread, marmalade, nuts, butter, olive oil, still water and fruit such as apple and grape

Wear comfortable shoes: the market part is on foot, for roughly thirty minutes, before you sit down. The tasting is not suited to vegans or people with lactose intolerance.
