5.00Excellent event, getting to the restaurant was tricky as it was in the midst of the very crowded Montmarte
Great wine, great host - but no real food so WAY OVERPRICED!!!

3.00The wine was good and Sasha, our substitute host (normal host was on vacation), was wonderful. However, there were 3 of us and we received a total of 2 individual slices of cheese and 3 pieces of meat for the entire tasting. Insufficient/skimpy for 1 person and definitely not at all appropriate for 3 people and the price we paid. In comparison, we did a tour, wine tasting and tapas event in Old Town Valencia for $85 a person -and had 10 courses of tapas, including paella and dessert - with 5 wines and a dessert wine. Here we paid $90 to taste four wines and essentially got no food. If we had paid $40 - $50, I would say it was worth it but, at $90 a head, we were taken advantage of - and I therefore can not recommend. We were disappointed by the event even though Sasha and the wine were very good.
Great Wine Tasting with Sylvia

5.00I used to work with wine before, so I know a bit about it. Sylvia surprised me - she really knows her stuff! Not just French wines, but international ones too. It was nice to remember things I’d forgotten. We tried 4 wines - all very good: one sparkling, one white and two reds. The food pairing (cheese, bread, butter, charcuterie) was fresh and delicious too. The restaurant is perfect for hot days: shady, with some trees outside, and air conditioning. Location is ideal - right on the Place du Tertre, in the heart of Montmartre. If you want a relaxed wine tasting with a true expert, go to Sylvia. Just good wine and a friendly atmosphere.
Fantastic wine tasting...

5.00Montramarte is such an amazing place and a wonderful place to explore! Sylvia was knowledgeable and answered all our questions! We even tried an “orange wine” the following day thanks to her advice and thoroughly enjoyed it. If we are ever back in Paris we would do this again!!!
