Clos Montmartre 'Paris in your Glass' Wine Tasting
The real story of Paris is wine, and the wine history of Montmartre is perhaps the most compelling. Paris Wine Walks is the only wine tour company that includes vineyard visits with blind wine tastings. Living vines and living wines! We share the wine history of Paris and explain how wine built Paris, and was also the inspiration for Gothic Architecture. Montmartre is one of Paris' most picturesque quarters and climbing any of the 2207 steps to get there requires a certain energy, but its worth the effort! The village of Montmartre has preserved its rural charm and so a walk along its historic streets makes one feel as if they're in a country village. Our walks are convivial, pedagogical, entertaining and original. Join us, and 'Take a walk on the vine side!'

Meeting Points
- Meet in front of Église Saint-Pierre, behind Sacré-Cœur near Place du Tertre, across from La Bohème Café. It takes at least 15 min to walk up from nearby metros. We recommend Lamarck-Caulaincourt, which has an elevator from the train to street level and the fewest stairs.
