Wine Your Way Through the Marais
Overview
Visiting the Marais through the perspective of a wine glass provides an entirely different view of this historic neighbourhood. Starting in the Joseph Mignaret park, we discover its hidden vineyard and the medieval history of the Marais. We then trace the wine history of the quarter, exploring the area where Charles V had his royal residence and vineyard, stopping along the way to taste a sparkling wine. We learn about some of the personalities who lived here, and end with a blind tasting of living wines, rustic fermented bread and exquisite cheeses in a wine bar.
What's Included
- Snacks Rustic fermented bread, exquisite cheeses and seasonal vegetables
- Alcoholic beverages There are two blind wine tastings with nibbles. The first is of a sparkling wine and the second, which takes place in a wine shop includes two natural, organic or biodynamic wines.

What To Expect
Wine your way through the Marais and discover the Marais' secret vineyard on this highly original wine walk.
The hidden vineyard of the charming Joseph Mignaret garden in the heart of the Marais is a surprising discovery. The 'Marais', which means swamp, drained in the 12th century, primarily produced market vegetables, but there were vines here too. An extensive vineyard attached to the Hotel Royal Saint Pol produced wines in the Middle Ages, so the history of the vine here is as old as the quarter's history.
Join us for this exceptional experience as we meander through one of Paris' oldest quarters and explore another aspect of the role the vine still plays in the urban landscape. An exclusive wine tasting (with cheeses, bread and seasonal vegetables) reflecting the flavours of the varietals planted here will complete this unique outing.
