From the guide

What makes this experience unique is the combination of authentic French wine culture and a private tasting salon located in the heart of Lyon.

The tasting takes place in an elegant and intimate venue designed for wine discovery, with premium glassware, natural light and a warm atmosphere inspired by traditional French hospitality. The salon has been created to offer a comfortable and convivial setting where guests can truly enjoy wine, food and conversation.

Hosted by Hugo Jeanguyot, wine guide working daily with wineries across France, the experience combines French wines, cheeses, gastronomy and stories about vineyards and winemakers from regions such as Beaujolais, Burgundy, Rhône Valley, Jura, Champagne and Alsace.

Each tasting is designed to be accessible for beginners while remaining interesting for wine lovers already passionate about French wines.
