Very Nice experience! Thank you for all the interesting Information.
Do you want to **get started in oenology** or discover new wines? France is a country globally recognized for its quality vineyards and vintages. Discover numerous tasting workshops on Funbooker to try great wines. You can familiarize yourself with everything related to the world of oenology!
While France is full of great places regarding **vineyards**, you should know that not all wines are tasted in the same way. There are several types of tasting workshops.
During a **wine tasting workshop**, an expert will show you, during a session, how to taste wine, and will have you sample different wines or Grand Crus typical of the region you are in.
You will know how to choose your wine, learn the **specific vocabulary of oenology** and discover other important concepts. Sweet or fruity wines, their aromas, the glasses to choose for a white wine, a red wine or a rosé wine: all of this will hold no secrets for you after the tasting session!
The same goes for differentiating wines from Alsace, Languedoc, Bordeaux, etc. Wine merchants will be able to advise you effectively, especially for good **food and wine pairings**.
For a slightly more original getaway, you can opt for a **vineyard visit** in addition to the tasting. Here you can discover a château, its estate, and its vineyards.
The winemakers will explain the specificities of their estate. After the tasting, you will have the opportunity to buy wine on site if you liked it!
Oenology courses are more technical than classic tastings. These workshops aim to **introduce you to oenology** with friends or family. You will learn how to read a label, the different wine production processes, or even its aging. We recommend these workshops for those who are already initiated.
Some workshops aim to specifically teach you the best food & wine associations. Who hasn't dreamed of knowing the right wine to pair with the right dish? This training will teach you these techniques and associations.
Beyond classic dishes, **wine & cheese** and wine & chocolate associations are quite popular because they are original. You will see how much the association of the right wine with the right cheese can enhance the taste and aromas.
With Funbooker, you can book **a wine tasting anywhere in France**, whether in a château or in your city.
Obviously, wine regions such as Champagne, Burgundy, Alsace, Beaujolais, or the Bordeaux area are more likely to offer many places to taste wine or champagne.
You can visit the **Caves du Louvre** or the Musée du Vin (Wine Museum) in Paris. The Cheese Geek offers fun and playful wine and cheese pairing workshops.
Wine tasting in Bordeaux: discover the **Saint-Emilion vineyard**, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, or the Médoc vineyard with Châteaux such as Château Margaux or Mouton Rotshchild.
Ideal for tasting the Grand Crus of Burgundy, discover the courses offered by the Mama Shelter restaurant in the heart of Lyon for **unique tastings**. You can also go to Beaujolais, north of Lyon, to discover great wine estates.
In Nantes, we recommend you try **Muscadet tasting**. You can also enjoy good Loire wines.
In this region, you will have the chance to taste **Languedoc wines**, a famous French grape variety. We especially recommend the Languedoc Pic Saint-Loup appellation.
Don't forget, alcohol abuse is dangerous for your health, consume with moderation
Tastings start at €20 on Funbooker. Some tastings at châteaux may be free, but you won't get the benefit of an oenologist's explanations.
