“Le Grand Tasting” (in bizarre Frenglish) is the name of another wine fair in Paris. They present a more modest, but still large, number of more specifically quality oriented producers. But all is of course a matter of taste. This wine fair is organised by two ex-Revue des Vin de France journalists, Michel Bettane and Thierry Dessauve, which is a promising basis for an interesting selection of exhibitors. Why not spend a few days in Paris and go to both events? With some time for Christmas shopping in-between! www.grandtasting.com
