About travel : goparis.about.com
A nice and very complete review from Colette Davidson for the travel part of about.com
“It could have something to do with the fact that I am slightly drunk before I’ve even had dinner – it’s anyone’s guess – but even in my questionable state, I can safely say thatWine Tasting in Paris offers a fun, informative and pretty fabulous way to spend an afternoon in the French capital. So, bring it on, Paris: give me your snobbiest waiter or your supermarket shelves piled high with bad Bordeaux. I’m a newly minted wine snob and I’m not afraid to show it.”
Paris Insights – Tom Reeve’s Blog
Located at 14, rue des Boulangers in the 5th arrondissement of Paris, the new shop is well equipped to handle presentations for a group of about ten persons. Thierry had a special table designed in the shape of a “V” that permits him to walk easily from the front of the room to the back, while he pours wines and makes comments about them. He also installed unusual lamps in the shape of wine bottles that hang from the ceiling and illuminate the space.
Guide2Paris / Help me in Paris
“The tasting of the wine was also very well handled, with generous measures and a good explanation of what to consider, whether its the “legs”, “robe” or one of eleven different families of aromas. All this in a friendly atmosphere overlooking the heart of Paris. You will come away with a genuine appreciation of French wine and some great information to share with friends and family”
“We would be happy to recommend wine tasting in Paris with Thierry and we are delighted to announce that he has agreed to give Help Me In Paris clients a special treat for every booking.”
