We will be in Paris next month and would like to tour a winery. Is there on in or near Paris that we could visit?

The Paris area isn't exactly wine country. The closest are Reims or Epernay (Champagne ) the first less than hour out, the second a bit more than an hour - - both by train from Paris Est. I'd pick Reims for the cathedral as well. After that, it's most likely a booked tour to Chablis, Loire, or Burgundy. A friend did one of those and they were grueling and expensive - - something like twelve hours and two-hundred fifty bucks.

You can get a round trip to Dijon on TGV for 30 Euro advance nonrefundable (1 hr 40 min trip). Wineandvoyages.com offers van tours of Burgundy with several tasting stops at wineries for about 63 Euro half day, 116 Euro all day. return to Dijon. There are many such outfits. Wineandvoyages.com is just the one I used and can recommend.
