#7 Take a Wine Tasting Class
Madame Ghislaine announces some truly unique approaches to her exciting line-up of premium wines at the Louisiana Renaissance Festival, especially a look at historical wines and their significance to history's famous and infamous characters. 
Madame also serves an elegant tasting plate of fruit, cheese, and bread. She and that Scottish lightskirt Bonnie McKinlay will delight you with some special surprise tasting items selected to compliment the wines.
And those of you who agree that the wine tasting is the best entertainment value at any faire will be delighted to know that entertainers including Marc Gunn, Vince Conaway and others will be there for your pleasure. And we believe the Queen will again make the wine tasting a stop on her progress around the faire – accompanied of course by the charming Lord Dudley.
