The wine event Salon du Vin – Paris Porte de Versailles

Twice a year in Paris, there is a great opportunity to taste wines from whole France. Personally, I try to never miss this major event for wine lovers.

Salon des Vignerons Indépendants

From November 25th to 29th, you can meet hundreds wine growers at the exhibition park of Porte de Versailles (metro station “Porte de Versailles”) You can discuss with them about their wines and taste as many wines as you want. A wine glass is given to you when you access the event and you just have to walk along stands and stop every time you find wines you want to taste. Furthermore, you can buy wine directly on spot and take it with you when you leave the exhibition.

Unfortunately, their website is in French only.
The price to access the event is 6 Euros per adult with the glass.
Note that there is also another one next March from 25th to 28th at Espace Champerret on the west side of Paris.
