Fête des Vendanges - Montmartre's Vineyard Awakens in a Storm of Rosé and Revelry

The narrow cobbled streets of Montmartre ran purple with wine as Paris's last working vineyard celebrated its 91st harvest festival. The Fête des Vendanges transformed the Butte into a five-day bacchanal where oyster stalls jostled with absinthe fountains, and the air smelled of fermenting grapes and freshly baked fougasse.

This year's revelry hit new heights when a rogue troupe of flying winemakers staged an aerial harvest—repelling down the vineyard's steep slopes like oenophile Spider-Men. The Clos Montmartre's 1,500 bottles of ultra-rare 2024 vintage sold out in 37 minutes flat, though savvy visitors found secret tastings in artists' ateliers-turned-popup-caves along Rue des Saules.

Why This Isn't Your Average Wine Festival:

• The Grape Stomp World Championship where competitors danced to accordion covers of Daft Punk
• Midnight Mass in a Wine Barrel - the 2AM "religious experience" inside a giant foudre at Sacré-Cœur's base
• The Hidden Speakeasies serving pre-phylloxera grape varietals from smuggled cuttings
