Think of France and you may think of some of the best wines in the world. For many, enjoying wine is as much a part of a trip to France as seeing the Eiffel Tower or the Louvre. If you’re in the French capital and interested in wine tasting Paris offers plenty of opportunities to sample wines from the country’s best known wine regions, including the Loire and Burgundy. Paris has dozens of fine wine shops, many of which offer regular tastings with no obligation to buy, and various companies also offer wine tasting tours in Paris. Expect to sample several excellent wines, typically during a tour lasting a couple of hours, and many companies combine the tasting with a walking tour or a meal in one of the city’s leading restaurants. You can expect the wines to be carefully matched with the different courses.
