Museum
District : Tour Eiffel / Trocadéro
Description :
Open since 1984, the Musée du Vin houses a collection of instruments and objects evocative of French wines and vineyards. The collection is presented in ...
the galleries of former quarries worked in the Middle Ages and later turned into cellars for the monks of the Ordre des Minimes. Once you have been introduced to the different methods of wine production, make sure you don’t miss the themed lectures and wine-tasting lessons, in order to make the most of this original and rewarding activity!
Arousing the senses of smell and taste, the museum tour is also accessible for visitors with hearing or visual impairments, as the museum has the “Tourisme & Handicap” label for these two categories of disability.
