Adventures With Wine

Adventures with Wine is the creation of Sara Feiz, an educator and wine consultant based in Paris since 2012. Her approach is grounded in a simple belief: engaging seriously with wine is one of the most effective ways to slow down, reconnect with the senses, and rediscover the pleasure of simple things. Holding a WSET diploma, having studied gastronomy at Le Cordon Bleu for years, and having traveled through French and Italian wine regions, Sara brings to each session she leads a solid academic background and authentic personal passion. The program is structured around three distinct formats. The masterclasses are 2-hour sessions held in Paris, designed to develop genuine tasting skills and confidence. Topics range from grape varieties and wine regions to food and wine pairings, making them accessible to both beginners and seasoned enthusiasts. The classroom atmosphere is deliberately intimate, allowing participants to engage directly with the subject and ask questions freely. The experiences take learning outside on half-day or full-day expeditions that combine wine education with nature and local culture. Destinations include Paris itself, the Loire Valley—one of the most diverse and historically rich wine regions in France—and the Champagne region, where participants can discover the entire production process from vineyard to bottle. These immersive formats are particularly suitable for groups seeking a memorable shared activity rather than a conventional classroom session. For corporate clients and event organizers, a dedicated consultancy service enables fully tailored programs. This can take the form of a private tasting, wine selection and sourcing for a special occasion, or designing a bespoke team-building event or corporate retreat. Sara's background ranges from engineering consulting in the United States to investment banking in Canada, as well as investment management in France, providing her with a particularly practical understanding of corporate culture and the expectations of professional groups. Adventures with Wine operates without a fixed location—the sessions take place in venues chosen based on the format and the group, ranging from private Parisian settings to vineyards and cellars in the Loire and Champagne. This flexibility makes the offering adaptable to a wide range of group sizes, budgets, and goals, whether the aim is an afternoon of discovery or a multi-day retreat focused on wine, food, and regional exploration.
