Every Fall I look forward to the wine harvest in Montmartre, the Fête des Vendanges. An annual event during which I don’t mind braving the crowds surrounding the Sacré-Cœur Basilica, eager to sample the various regional wines, paired with plentiful samples of cheese and fois gras, bien sûr!
This year my friend Sarah was in town from Rome, a wine aficionado as luck would have it, and she too was eager to indulge her palate in the tastes of France.
Amidst all the tastings there was entertainment and we even ran into Lily of Context Travel, toting her custom Kasia Dietz bag, designed exclusively for Context Travel.
Our last tasting was vin chaud, a perfect grand finale. Now it was time to enjoy the view.
Lucky you!! I listed this as one of the events I would’ve loved to go to in October. Thanks so much for sharing the experience; I love that I got to live vicariously through your photos. 🙂
