CONCEPT
You are looking for a truly unique wine experience? You want to taste fine wines and ask all the questions you wouldn’t dare ask in a Michelin-starred restaurant? And enjoy a timeless moment in a cellar hidden beneath a Parisian Haussmannian building? Then you are at the right place: welcome to Marco’s private cellar. In an intimate and welcoming setting, these exceptional experiences are designed for a maximum of 6 participants. The format is typically based on 4 bottles selected by Marco and served blind, lasting approximately 2 hours. The aim of this experience is to encourage debates and open the discussion around the wines being tasted. This experience is available in French or English upon request.
THE TASTING
The experience typically takes place in three steps:
- Introduction by Marco (15 min)
- Review of tasting methods for old vintages (15 min)
- Tasting and discussions around the wines (1.5 hours)
Water is of course included in the tasting. You can also charge your phones on a power strip. However, food is not provided. As this is an authentic Parisian wine cellar, please note that there is no Wi-Fi and the cellar does not have restrooms.
