Start with a relaxed wine-tasting session with an expert sommelier, who’ll teach you about winemaking in France, explain wine terms and teach you basic wine-tasting techniques.
Taste a variety of at least 10 wines from several regions in France such as Alsace, Burgundy, Rhône, Bordeaux, Languedoc, Roussillon and the Loire Valley. You’ll also delve into the world of modern winemaking in the United States and understand how it differs from European winemaking.
This experience goes beyond just wine tasting – you’ll learn about the combination of food and wine and discover how to find the perfect matches! We all know that red wine goes with meat, while white wine goes with fish, but you'll learn much more. For example, tour sommelier will reveal the little-known fact that oftentimes the best food/wine combination are a marriage between wine and food grown in the same region.
Experiment with different food and wine combinations as you savor typical Belgian and French dishes -- including appetizers, a main course, and cheeses and chocolate for dessert -- and wash your meal down with various wines. During each phase of the meal, you'll discover which wines pair best with which foods.
