Wine tasting at Vivat Bacchus

Wine tasting in the cellar. Sit at long tables. We went to wine and cheese pairing. It took place in the cellar. We sat at long tables and the places had already been allocated with name cards.


The wine tasting cost about £20 each and consisted of four tastings of wine matched with four types of cheese. That platter is between four, so you get one piece of cheese and one piece of fruit or dried fruit or nuts and honey to go with each glass. 

What did I learn and like the most? That sweet honey is a wonderful combination and contrast with cheese and dry wine.

The restaurant manager told us about the wines. Their cheese expert, Natalia, told us about the cheese, showing us on a map of France where the cheeses came from.

At the end you are offered 15% off a meal upstairs in their restaurant. When we sat down to eat upstairs, we found a picture of Natalia on their advertisement for the cheese tastings.
