What to expect
You'll arrive at a proper wine shop and meet your tutor, who'll walk you through six carefully selected pours over half an hour. Each wine comes with honest talk about its origins, the grapes behind it and what makes it distinctive. If you pick the Provence route, you'll taste how limestone soil and Mediterranean sun shape the region's output. Choose the French regional angle and you'll compare how Burgundy differs from Bordeaux in both flavour and technique. The global pairing option lines up French classics against wines from Spain, Italy or beyond to show how place and winemaking practice shape the glass. At the end, you pick a wine to take with you—your tutor will pour a full glass of whatever caught your palate.
