Wine, Charcuterie and Bread – A Taste of Real France
Wine and charcuterie are a classic French match, and this tasting is your chance to discover why. During this experience, you’ll learn the essentials of wine tasting and how to pair it with a wide variety of cured meats, pâtés and traditional cold cuts. You’ll enjoy a generous selection of artisanal charcuterie, including duck-based delicacies like rillettes and dried breast, as well as more traditional favorites like cured ham, dry sausages and seasonal regional specialties.
To complete the experience, we’ll also share a variety of fresh breads from local artisan bakeries, including baguettes, corn bread and cranberry loaves, depending on the baker’s creations of the day.
A Friendly, Fun and Educational Experience
You’ll taste four wines and twelve charcuterie bites, all carefully selected from independent winemakers and producers. The tasting is structured in four parts, with each wine paired with three different charcuterie samples. In every round, we’ll guide you through the wine’s region, grape variety and key characteristics, such as sweetness, acidity, body, roundness and length.
Between each tasting session, you’ll have time to relax, enjoy the food and wine, and connect with the other participants while French music plays in the background. These informal breaks are part of what makes the experience both rich and convivial.
Come Hungry and Curious
The tasting portions are generous, with about one third of a bottle of wine per person and enough food to replace a full meal. There’s no need to eat before or after, just bring your appetite and curiosity.
This experience is open to everyone, whether you’re just starting to explore wine or already enjoy it. We use clear and simple language, so by the end of the night, you’ll not only have tasted some excellent wines, but also know how to talk about what you like and why.
