Mohegan Lake, NY December 17, 2004 -– Discover Paris!, a travel planning service specializing in customized itineraries for the discerning traveler, announced today that it now offers several activities to appeal to amateurs and connoisseurs of fine wines. Calling its new service Wine Adventures in Paris, the company has developed a number of guided visits to wine bars, cellars, auctions, stores and trade shows hosted by a bilingual guide with 25 years of experience in the industry.While many travel services propose visits to the wine-producing regions of France, few offer wine-oriented activities in Paris. Yet the city has many wine bars and cellars that are waiting to be discovered, is home to one of the largest wine stores on the Continent, and hosts prestigious professional and public wine shows several times a year. Paris also actively promotes its history as a wine-producing region, and is replanting and nourishing its small, local vineyards.Discover Paris' guide, known simply as "Daniel" to his clients, is a French man who comes from a family of gourmets with a long tradition of seeking and finding the best wines in France. He is thoroughly familiar with the country's wine producing regions, their history, their best products and the best places to purchase them in Paris.

He is the ultimate insider when it comes to gaining access to Paris' hidden wine world – his personal contacts open doors to places that travelers would never discover on their own.Daniel plans visits to the best wine caves (cellars) in town. Every weekend, extraordinary winemakers from all over France descend upon Paris to promote their vintages, and Discover Paris! clients are able to benefit from Daniel's invitations to tastings across the city. He knows which restaurants have the best stocks of regional wines such as Pomerol, Cassis and Languedoc, and can guide clients through the perfect wine-pairing meal at such establishments. He has frequented Paris' best-known auction house, Hôtel Drouot, for the past 20 years, and knows several experts in old wines. He accompanies clients to auctions, counseling them on etiquette and procedure and advising them on the wines available for purchase.Discover Paris' first special Wine Adventure is a private visit to the Spring 2005 Salon des Caves Particulières (April 8-11, 2005).
