Wine Tasting Courses in Paris: Enjoy Wine in the Heart of the Capital, for All Levels
Paris may lack vineyards, but it certainly doesn't lack a passion for wine. It's here, between bistros and historic cellars, that you'll find some of the best wine instructors in France. Cœur Oenologie offers tasting courses for all wine lovers—from the novice who's never dared to smell a glass to the connoisseur who wants to deepen their knowledge of grape varieties and terroirs. Our workshops take place in the heart of Paris, in venues designed for wine tasting: an intimate wine cellar, a vaulted cellar, or sometimes the Vino Club space when the format is suitable. Discover wine tasting in a new way — with us, learning is always enjoyable, and every bottle of wine opened tells a story of grape variety, winemaking, and expertise.
Introduction, advanced training, and certification courses: a wine course for every profile
Whether you're looking for an introductory tasting course to lay the foundations of wine tasting, a wine course to explore wine regions in depth, or a WSET-style wine course certified by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust, our programs cover all levels. In our wine courses in Paris, our instructors will teach you a practical method: recognizing aromas, identifying flaws, and understanding why a red wine from the Rhône Valley is quite different from red Burgundy or Bordeaux wines. The approach is oenological but never dry—we taste, we discuss, and we learn to describe our impressions in our own words. WSET certification courses, on the other hand, are designed for those seeking recognized oenological training, whether out of a love for wine or to pursue a career as a sommelier. During this training, each session is a step further towards a deeper understanding of French wines and wine service.
Discover French wines: from Bordeaux to Burgundy, without leaving Paris
What makes a wine course in Paris so enriching is the freedom to travel through wine. In a single session, you can taste Burgundy wines—from great mineral whites to the most renowned Grand Crus—then move on to white wines from Alsace or wines from the South of France. Our wine courses in Paris also cover wine in Paris and Lyon, with combined formats for those who wish to explore different wine regions. Food and wine pairing, wine and spirits tasting, introduction to wines and spirits… each workshop is friendly and designed so that you leave with lasting knowledge. And if you're looking for a gift idea or a present to give, our gift voucher is the perfect gift course — a wine from which it all begins. Check out our bestsellers and special offers to book: it's often the best way to discover grape varieties, appellations, and an entire vineyard without leaving the capital.
