You like wine? You like cheese? We do too. So we went out to the vineyards and selected for you great French wines. We also ran around Paris to find an outsanding fromager. We did all this with one thing in mind: offering you a fantastic wine and cheese tasting experience.


O Chateau’s Wine and Cheese Lunch has become a landmark for any gourmand traveler. We designed this tasting as a fun and different way to spend a meal in Paris. Instead of going to yet another restaurant, our Wine and Cheese Lunch is a great oppportunity not only to taste good French products but also to get an education about them.


The tasting starts at noon in our 17th century wine cellar right near the Louvre. We’ll taste six different wines, coming from 6 different regions of France. From Champagne to Bordeaux, from Sancerre to the Rhone… just sit back and enjoy this tasty Tour de France of wine – O Chateau style!


Most of the presentation will be focused on wine. Yet, our sommelier will suggest pairings, will explain to you why this cheese might work better with that wine. While you indulge in two of France’s best delicacies, you will learn about French wine, how to read a French label, how to pair it with food; you’ll be taken through a tour of France’s main wine regions…


A day spent walking around Paris can sure create an appetite, so servings of wine and cheese are generous. Plus we add some charcuterie (smoked ham from the South West of France, saucisson from Corsica…) to bring even more joy and color to the table.


Santé et bon appétit!
