Outstanding! - Outstanding tasting. We are not professionals by any stretch of imagination but we do enjoy a good glass of wine. Nicholas was great, witty, entertaining and we certainly learned something. Wines were great and so was cheese. Thanks Nicholas!

Parfait! - Nico provided a comprehensive, seminar-like experience in a soup-to-nuts fashion. For me, it was a tad overwhelming but my wife kept up well as we learned about the different regions of France and the wines they produce. We left with a much better knowledge of how to choose and enjoy our next bottle if wine. Highly recommend!

If you go to Paris and do not do this experience... then simply do not go to Paris - Words can't even describe how amazing this was. Me personally not a wine person at all, I hate pretty much everything wine related in the US. But when in France you need some wine. These wines were hand selected for us based on the crowd he had that night and every single wine was impressive and very good all around. He is a great teacher and gives a "lesson" over wine for the first little but of the experience. He gave me more information about wine in 25 minutes than I've learned in years from other samplings or personal research. He pairs a cheese with each wine which makes you want to go on a cheese and wine diet for the rest of life. Everyone was quiet at first but had the whole room laughing and enjoying themselves by the end. 15/10 would recommend and would with no doubt do it again if I make it back to Paris!!

Fantastic experience. - I have been to a lot of wine tastings in France and Napa Valley. This was by far the most informative (but not in a boring way!). Nico is very knowledgeable and funny. The cheese paring was impeccable and the wines he selected were outstanding.

Perfection - This truly is the only wine tasting event that you need to go to! You will not be disappointed! Not only are you tasting some of the finest wines, and understanding wine etiquette, but you get a history of the French wines.

Informative, fun, tasty - Nico was cool, knowledgeable and personable. He made the wine-tasting experience fun and informative for my partner and I. Would definitely recommend if you want some knowledge with your wine and cheese.

Go to Secret Wine Door, OChateau or Paris Wine Tasting - Completely uncomfortable experience, Nicolas seems to think he knows everything about cultures. Very opinionated as another reviewer said. I looked his certificates up he says he has on Linkedin and they don’t even exist. I guess you have to fake it until you make it Paris right. Nice wine and cheese but dishonest lying owner
