Fêtes des Vendanges
-
Paris used to be one of the country’s major wine producers, but these days only the vineyards at Montmartre remain (see Montmartre and Pigalle). These produce just under 600 litres (5 barrels) of wine each autumn, but great fun is had at the Fêtes des Vendanges when the wine is auctioned off for charity. There are parades, speeches and, of course, much drinking.
