About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- K3059TAdeniseb0 contributionsFun way to taste the wines of France!This was such a fun way to learn about french wine and cheese! The group was small enough to learn from each other and a lot of fun to meet people! Even fun for a non wine-drinker!Written November 10, 2024
- foldent0 contributionsPerfect for people looking to get into wineMy husband and I booked this tasting last minute because we were looking for a nice "honeymoon" activity and wanted to learn more about wine, and it is turning out to be one of the highlights of our trip to Paris! Not only did we learn so much about French wine and cheese, Thierry also made us feel so welcome and everything was delicious! You can tell he is knowledgeable and passionate about what he does, and I can't imagine a better start to our wine tasting journey.Written November 8, 2024
- Ruth B0 contributionsFabulous Experience!Owner Host Thierry provided a fun educational wine tasting experience! Each wine was paired with cheese and bread. He used video tools as he took us through the history of both the wine and the cheese. His presentation was humorous and organized! Never a boring minute! Located on a cobblestone street in a charming setting that felt like you were in a real wine cellar. He gifted us with a portable bottle wine pourer spout. This is the only wine tasting you should consider when in Paris. Two minute walk from the 10 Metro stop. I willingly would do this tour again!Written August 10, 2024
- Maggie B0 contributionsGreat time!This class was so much fun and very informative! We learned a lot about French wine and cheeses. All the pairings were spectacular. Our instructor was very knowledgeable! Highly recommend!Written May 23, 2024
- O4501NMfrancescas0 contributionsFun, informative and awesome experience with an expert sommelier !What a fun, informative and awesome experience we had with Theirry at his beautiful wine shop! We loved our wine and cheese pairing class and felt like the timing was great, we learned a lot and had a super enjoyable experience! Thierry is an experienced sommelier with perfect English and a lifetime of knowledge. By chance, the 3 of us had the class to ourselves and Thierry was just as upbeat and charismatic as if the room was full. We walked away with some great and useful knowledge and a few bottles of the wine that we tried. We recommend this experience wholeheartedly - you will be taken care of, learn some new things and will have a great time tasting some amazing wines and cheeses!Written April 16, 2024
- Esti-ECT0 contributionsFabulous 'Cheese & Wine' Experience - not to be missed!One of the best Cheese & Wine experiences I have had the pleaure to attend. The host Thierry has an excellent command of English. From his warm welcome on arrival and throughout, he shared his extensive knowledge of cheese, wine and France. he was very organised and informative without being at all regimented. He chose 4 wonderful delicious cheeses and 4 superb wines, explained why he had chosen those particular ones together and all about their background and production. We were with a small group of people all equally delightful and fun. Hoenstly, if you want a great 'cheese & wine' experience in Paris, this is the one to choose. We loved it.Written January 29, 2024
- 112mikkelb0 contributionsI’ll do it againSuper nice, and highly recommendable. Nice wine and cheese, skilled sommelier who educated on the respected level of wine and cheese knowledgeWritten December 19, 2023
- 112mikkelb0 contributionsWe recommend.Very good experience, the sommelier spoke and taught from the wine knowledge that the participants had. The cheese was excellent, and the amount of cheese was good. Don’t change that. The wine was excellent, and the amount was good. Don’t change that. Good pairing with the different cheese and wines, good atmosphere, good know-how about the wines/cheese, the origins, the ettikette and more. We recommendWritten December 17, 2023
- Leigh P0 contributionsGreat wine and cheese tasting!!Went with a group of girlfriends and had a blast - learned so much and really enjoyed all the wines and cheeses!Written November 29, 2023
- curtisj3000 contributionsThe best wine tasting ever!Thierry was an excellent host and the most eloquent of connoisseurs. The session was extremely interesting and enjoyable. Not only was Theirry engaging but he made the session fascinating. The best thing was the serving sizes. The cheese and wine selections were absolutely phenomenal. If I were looking for a slight criticism (which is very difficult because the session was amazing) I would say that it would be helpful if theirry alternated which side he poured the wine for as one side consistently got larger glasses of wine.Written November 19, 2023
- 492eleanad0 contributionsCheese and Wine TastingThe cheese and wine tasting was such a good experience and was an absolute highlight of our trip! We had very little knowledge prior but Thierry was very informative and made the whole experience fun. Would highly recommend.Written November 18, 2023
- charlespD2676SE0 contributionsWine and cheese tasting in Paris experience great afternoon excursionThierry was knowledgeable and pleasant. Our noon tasting had only 2 couples. We were late because of unexpected Paris Metro train issue. The other couple was 20 minutes late. They didn’t say why. Learned they were married 2 days earlier so perhaps we know why! No problem Thierry was patient. 4 wines and 4 cheeses. Presentation room cozy side. Capacity 12. Included visual on projected screen. Very professional. Generous pours… just ask for more! Wines for sale reasonably priced. Unique experience due to cheese pairing discussions.Written September 29, 2023
- Alex R0 contributionsAmazing experienceThierry was so helpful and informative. I learned about French wines overall and tried four different wines and four different cheeses, paired accordingly-- from dry white to deep, rich red. I would highly recommend this to anyone.Written August 23, 2023
- B5071THsarahw0 contributionsHIGHLY recommendThe visit was amazing. Thierry was very kind and knowledgeable, answering our questions with ease. He explained the process of pairing wines, how they’re made, and how to get the most out of the tasting experience.Written June 13, 2023
- 225deborahb0 contributionsInformative, fun, delicious and lots of laughs and conversation.We did this activity on our first day in Paris and it was such a highlight. It was easy to get there on the metro, and in a lovely neighbourhood. Our host was Thierry, and he was funny, warm and informative. There was about 10 people altogether in the group, and it was very fun to chat and talk to them over our wine and cheese. As an informative experience about wine, cheese, and pairing them, this experience was excellent, and we learnt a lot. The wine was delicious and generously poured, and the cheese was scrumptious. I highly recommend this experience, whether you are with friends or to go alone. You will love it.Written May 26, 2023

My husband and I and our 3 adult children had Thierry do a private tasting via Zoom to celebrate my husband's birthday. From start to finish it was a wonderful experience. Not only is Thierry knowledgeable, easygoing and super friendly, he made the experience even more organized and pleasant by providing suggested wines to buy in advance, as well as French cheeses to go along with them. We learned a great deal from his presentation about the wines, the various regions in France from where the wines come, as well as how to taste and read a wine label. I highly recommend Thierry for wine tasting and hope to do another tasting in person on a future trip to Paris---hopefully soon!

We did this wine tasting on the first day of our five day trip through Paris. Great start! We had so much fun. Thierry gave us a lot of information, but it was very clear and interesting. He was open to any questions the group had. He also created a very comfortable atmosphere and is very knowledgeable about French wine and the history. In the beginning the group was a bit more hesitant, but we relaxed after the second/third glass of wine haha. We thought it was very nice that we had a group with mixed origins, like the netherlands, america, canada and saudi-arabia. That was what made the evening all the more special, sharing stories and joking around. Thank you so much Thierry!

We had two different events a few months apart:
- 1st one: Bordeaux, right bank, left bank. 17 of us across Washington state and California. We had some good knowledge of Bordeaux already. Hence, I was shocked how much we learned and how Thierry made it a great tasting AND an educational as well experience (sometimes both are hard to accomplish at the same time).
- 2nd one: Burgundy master-class. The 10 of us that time learned so much in an hour; from history, to classification, or the wine making itself. All of it quite different from Bordeaux. The wine selection was a great representation of each appellation typicity.
Thank you THIERRY! We will come and visit when we are in Paris. We had such great fun learning from you and traveling through wines. I would have never imaged that online classes could be so enjoyable!

Thierry was a great teacher. His knowledge is very extensive and he really made it all very fun and digestible. The wines were high quality and very tasty, especially the Champagne! I would highly recommend this tasting class if you want an introduction to french wines in a fun and informative session. It's also a great way to meet some like minded people and have a fun couple of hours.
Thank you Thierry!

Thierry was a great host! Although we already have some wine knowledge we learned a lot in a very interactive way. The wine tasting is delicious and the atmosphere is very cosy. We highly recommend to book a wine tasting when in Paris.

The experience was incredibly informative and fun with lovely wines (generous pours!) and an option for cheese pairings which went beautifully. Thierry was excellent, very chatty and answered all our questions (even the stupid ones) and sparked insightful conversation amongst the group. We tried a champagne, two whites and 3 reds, all of different calibre. There was a leaflet provided with a map of all the french wine regions and he provided an excellent overview of the difference of the wines from the areas. Overall, a brilliant experience and we would definitely return - it was worth every cent!

Our host was most gracious and we enjoyed a relaxing evening with two other guests. We sampled several classic French varieties of wines and learned about the differences between this and other international regions. This was one of the best and most remembered events in Paris!

Wow. What an incredible experience. Thierry was fantastic, extremely knowledgeable and brilliantly accommodating. We went on my sister’s Hen Do and Thierry took care of us so well considering he is used to intense educational wine tasting sessions. We could not have been more impressed with our wine tasting experience and would recommend to anyone going to Paris.

Thiery talked us through the basics of wine tasting and the wines regions of France, and then we got stuck into the delicious tasting experience.
He explained everything really clearly and answered all our questions. Thiery is super expert so if you're already knowledgeable and passionate about wine, he has lots of expertise to share and for those of us who are more novice, it's a great opportunity to get an introduction and build some knowledge. I really enjoyed trying some posher wines than I would usually come across and build a bit of confidence about describing what I'm tasting and understanding what I like.
I took my 19 year old son; we both learnt lots. Others in the group were generally beginner level, like us, while a few were more experienced.
The group size is small enough for everyone to be able to ask questions but big enough to create a fun atmosphere.
Highly recommended!

Hi,
The wine tasting with 6 wines - does this include cheese? The pictures show cheese, but there is nothing written about cheese.

Is this better than going out to a winery? Can’t decide on which way to go since we are a group who some like red, and others like white..... plus I want to get the most bang for our bucks...thx!

We did a wine tasting in Paris in the Latin quarter with a very experienced sommelier call Wine Tasting in Paris with Henry Thierry. We had such a good time and education of French wines from different regions, white, red, champagne etc. highly recommend doing this in Paris. He can accommodate a group up to 12 people in his private shop that is very nice.
