Where we'll lay our heads
Paris | M Social Hotel
We begin in Paris, of course, with a chic overnight stay at M Social, where modern luxury meets unmistakable Parisian flair. Perfectly placed near the Opéra, this stylish hotel gives us just enough time to toast our arrival, wander the boulevards, and ease into French life before the real adventure begins. Think plush beds, polished details, and that delicious first night in France feeling.

Champagne | Hostellerie La Briqueterie
Next, we trade city lights for vineyard views at Hostellerie La Briqueterie, our elegant countryside home in Champagne. This former brickworks-turned-five-star retreat is all about quiet luxury. Think serene spa moments, beautiful rooms, and champagne always within reach. Here, days are designed for lingering: tastings that turn into stories, long meals, and evenings that end exactly how they should, unhurried and unforgettable.

See what our guests are saying...
"I really don't think I've ever had a vacation where I did so much over the course of a week and yet felt truly restored by the end."
"When I tasted wine with The Cultured Somm she helped me to truly 'see' something I had been blind to. These joyous little gems of discovery have happened with her in a range of environments, from traveling in Italy, to intimate in-home tastings. That's what wine is all about: joy and learning and discovery every day, and any day, from the comfort of your home to special one of a kind experiences."
