Wine tasting in the heart of Paris
Wine Tasting
Paris, a city of elegance and gastronomy, offers a wonderful setting for discovering French wines. La Cave Du Canal, nestled in the heart of the capital, offers wine-tasting workshops in Paris that combine pleasure and discovery.

Each session takes place in a warm and welcoming setting : You will be welcomed by a passionate sommelier, guided through France's great wine regions and immersed in the friendly atmosphere of our wine bar. The tastings are designed to be engaging and tailored to you, combining theory and practice (the importance of terroir, grape varieties, tasting techniques) to ensure a unique experience that is accessible to everyone.
A friendly and professional experience

Our workshops are led by passionate sommeliers in an atmosphere that is both friendly and relaxed. You'll taste in a small group or even on your own, while sharing mixed platters of charcuterie and cheeses sourced from French wine regions. Each wine is explained in an accessible way: the aim isn't to become an “ expert ” but to enjoy yourself, awaken your senses and learn the language of wine. Our hosts tailor their explanations to your level to make the tasting fun and enriching. At the end of the workshop, you'll leave not only knowing how to describe a wine's acidity, tannins or finish, but also with the favourites you can buy on-site.
A journey through the heart of France's wine regions

The tasting is designed as a true sensory journey through France's wine regions . Our wine selection covers the full range of iconic grape varieties: from Champagne (Chardonnay and Pinot Noir) to Bordeaux (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot), as well as Burgundy (Pinot Noir, Chardonnay), the Rhône Valley (Syrah, Grenache), the Loire Valley (Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin) and Provence (Grenache, Cinsault). At each stop, the sommelier introduces the aromas and characteristics of each wine, explaining the richness of the terroir and the history of each appellation. This workshop is an opportunity to identify key grape varieties, understand how climate and soil influence wine, and taste wines that represent each region. The commentary highlights the diversity of French wines and helps you refine your preferences.

Just had the most brilliant experience in Paris. We booked the cheese and wine tasting. So informative and very interesting. Our Sommelier Ben was so articulate and knowledgeable. Well worth a visit, highly recomended. Fabulous.
Dégustation de vin qui s’est très bien passée ! Tout était interessant. Merci à Robin ;)
Incroyable expérience, Robin le boss !!
Très belle cave! Merci à Aram.
Super moment passé à la cave du canal. On cherchait un endroit où se poser facilement pour boire un verre, déguster du vin de qualité et une petite planche et on n'a pas été déçu. Super bien reçu par Aram, qui nous a présenté tous ses vins, et on a passé un très bon moment à la fois avec les serveurs et les autres clients. Je conseille à tout le monde.
My wife and I booked this wine tasting- best one we have ever gone to! The knowledge and expertise was fantastic. We had Ben and was very nice and spoke English very well. The wines were delicious and the pairings with cheese and meats were perfect! A must! We enjoyed it so much we stayed and had a bottle of wine!
It was a great experience. The guides were very nice and informative. It’s quite an experience!!!
Super bonne expérience de dégustation avec Robin . Je recommande !
It was a personal wine tasting, where the guide explained to my sister and me everything about around 5 wines. We learned where they are from, how you can tell what the Color means and the smell. The guide spoke great English and he was a really cool guy. The snacks were awesome as well and we got to experience what to eat with which wine.
Excellent wine tasting and cheese tasting. Best tasting I have ever done!!!
Ben conducted the session and we were impressed by the information he gave us. This is highly recommended 👍👍👍
Booked at wine tasting evening here and it was so much fun! The guy was really good and very informative of his wines, which were really tasty, came with a little food board to see which foods go with which wines. Very nice indeed!
Absolutely amazing experience, highly recommended
