WHERE: Paris, France
WHEN: from 09th to 13th October 2024
The French are never stingy with nationalistic initiatives. The question then becomes even more heated when it comes to wine. This delicious nectar, which only in France, reaches its maximum expression. Because only here, the best wine is produced. The air is the best. And the earth offers the best fruits; the best vineyards. The best grape. Because in France, the best winemakers are born …
At least, that’s what the French would tell you.
We ordinary mortals can only satisfy our senses, having a party, and drinking good wine. And what better occasion, if not celebrating in the Ville Lumiére?
In October, in Paris, the only vineyard in the capital is celebrated, with five fantastic days of music, dance and shows. Great protagonist will be, of course, the wine and the cellar Clos Montmartre, the only one present in Paris. There Montmartre Harvest Festival, comes to its 91th edition. Ninety-one years of fun, with a really rich program which, this year, it will focus on the theme “le 18è cultive l’imaginaire“, opening up to the aspect of the dream and the unprecedented.
