Monthly Wine
Tasting Dinner
Owner Jean and Executive Chef Arnaud invite you on a journey through France — a curated four-course dinner, each course paired with a hand-selected glass of fine wine. Live music, warm company, and the chance to win a bottle to take home.
What to Expect
Each course is thoughtfully composed to showcase French culinary tradition, with seasonal ingredients and classic technique.
A glass of fine wine accompanies every course, selected by Jean to complement each dish and guide guests through a different region of France.
Guests are welcomed with a French appetizer and warm gougères — classic choux pastry puffs filled with cheese.
Live acoustic music sets the mood throughout dinner, creating an atmosphere that transports guests straight to a Parisian bistro.
Jean, our owner and wine connoisseur, personally presents each wine — sharing the story behind the vineyard, the region, and the pairing.
One lucky guest wins a bottle of wine to take home. Your ticket to a piece of France, long after the evening ends.
