Salon des Vins des Vignerons Indépendants

About

French Wine Fair

Salon des Vins des Vignerons Indépendants brings independent French winemakers to Paris for one of the country's liveliest wine fairs. Growers from Bordeaux, Burgundy, Alsace, the Loire and the Rhône pour their own bottles. That means you taste directly with the people who farm the vines. The food and beverage lineup goes beyond wine, though. Regional cheeses, charcuterie, olive oils and spirits round out the halls. Buyers, importers, sommeliers and curious drinkers all work the aisles. They meet vignerons, compare vintages and negotiate orders face to face. If you source French wine or track food and beverage trends in Europe, this Paris trade show belongs on your calendar. Come ready to swirl, spit and talk shop with the growers themselves.
