Overview

You've never done a wine tasting like this before.

Hi, I'm Caroline and I'm a wine expert who knows how confusing wine can be. After 15 years of sommelier experience and professional qualifications (WSET 4), I'm here to make things simple and fun for you.

Tastings take place around my authentic dinner table in a converted historic 19th Century silk factory in the Croix-Rousse area. You'll love seeing first-hand how the locals live!

I purchase all your wines at local vineyards. I work with small, independent wineries that focus on quality and sustainability. You will always learn about Beaujolais, Burgundy, and the Northern Rhône, but I may also include other hidden gems from nearby. I'll never serve anything that comes from further than 2 hours away.

Rather than spending all day in the car to visit one region and taste the same few wines over and over, how about spending a relaxing afternoon in some air-conditioning and getting real quality time with an expert somm?

Activity itinerary

Would you love to increase your French wine knowledge with direct access to an expert Sommelier? During this tasting, you’ll gain a profound knowledge of French wine through your guided tasting with an expert teacher. Your wine tasting takes place in a real Lyonnais home, an authentic escape unlike anything you've ever seen. You’ll be welcomed as a guest around the dinner table in a 19th Century silk factory turned modern apartment. You'll start by enjoying a glass of local sparkling wine on the couch while we do our introductions. Next you'll head to the table to taste through 3 whites and 3 reds, learning about wine tasting technique, French wine as a whole, and each of the individual wines. All fine wines were chosen for you to experience the variety of our local wines and always include Beaujolais, Burgundy, and the Rhône. You'll also enjoy a fabulous local cheese & charcuterie board to accompany all that wine!
