Perhaps you already know that I’ve just visited the very private Montmartre vineyard.
I even recorded the visit live on YouTube. You can watch the replay below, featuring magic, a parade of Petit Poulbot drummers, and an interview with the head of the vineyard.
But a heck of a lot of other things that also happened weren’t captured on camera, so I thought I’d share them here too.
First, here are a few pictures from the vineyard and the walk. I’ve added captions so you can click for more info. All of these were snapped by Montmartre photographer Ben Simpson.
The walk began at the Sacre Coeur 
Then featured some surprise drummer guests from Les P’tits Poulbots 
They paraded us down to the vineyard 
Once inside I took a tour of the whole vineyard 
Rather good view indeed! 
I interviewed the experts about the grape varieties 
.. and learned the nearly 100 year history of the vineyard 
And of course, I tasted the wine! 
The Montmartre backdrop made for some lovely photos! 
Laurence taught us all about local artist Francisque Poulbot too! 
Wine tasting 
Plenty of flowers in the vineyard too! 
Exploring Paris, one secret at a time 
Hope you enjoyed this glimpse inside the vineyard!
Also, today’s podcast episode is me talking about the walk, what it’s like to host Walk Shows, how everything can (and sometimes does) go wrong.
