Fête des Vendanges de Montmartre, Paris 2009

The Fête des Vendanges de Montmartre, Paris is certainly one of my favourite salon du vin of the year.

Click on the official video and join Monsieur Daniel Vaillant, the Mayor of Paris 18e arrondissement, and experience the weekends events.

Keep an eye out for Géralds staring role, 1 minute into the video, talking about the Saumur rouge !!

Here's Gérald sharing un verre with Montmartres Oenologue.

See you there in October 2010.
