You should go for it, especially if you have little time in Paris but want to try their wines

It was excellent! You can listen to audioguide at your pace, and at the end you can take your time drinking wines, without any rush, you can also pick the last wine to be red or white as you like, which is en extra point for the place and experience 🍷

It was good. Enjoyed the wines, but I expected something else.

It was alright. I have been to many wine tastings and expected more. The cave was beautiful and the guide was nice and knowledgeable. I thought this might be more of a sit down experience and we could have side by side tastings from different regions.

Clement is a fabulous wine educator!

Clement (sp?) was fabulous! So knowledgeable about wine and even international regions. He made so many great connections! I do wish the audio portion was not self guided. Overall though, a wonderful experience!

Brilliant day out!

This is an amazing place to visit. We done the wine tasting with a group of 8. It wasnt overly busy either which made it very nice to visit - we done the 12.15pm booking. Jan was amazing and very knowledgable. He was good fun too and we had great conversations! Thank you so much for a lovely experience Jan!

Amazing experience and service. A true must go.

Everything about being here was spectacular. The wine tour Allan provided was engaging and immersive. Not only was he giving us amazing info (I know nothing about wine so I learned a lot), but he was also getting us involved in things like identifying different smells that end up in wines. His stories and knowledge made the entire tour wonderful. After the tour my wife and I bought a considerable amount of wine (for us). Allan took us next store and helped us pick out all the wine and helped us get it shipped home. If you’re thinking of going here for the wine, tour, mixing, anything you’ll be glad you did.

Operator response

Thank you very much for your kind review. We are very happy that you enjoyed your experience at Caves du Louvre. It was a pleasure hosting you and your wife and we hope you enjoy the wines at home!
