When it comes to French wine, Attention Shoppers! enjoys a glass every now and then (or every day and then some, as the case may be). And when it comes to French mimes, we have an interest bordering on obsession which dates back to a fatal day during our junior year in college which combined a French foreign exchange student, a Halloween party and a game of truth or dare.
So you can imagine our delight when we came across this site, which combines French mime and French wine. Only this mime TALKS! A la Marcel Marceau in “Silent Movie” for all of you Mel Brooks fans out there. The mime is going on blind dates, much like Hannah in our last post (a trend perhaps?).
In any case, we believe the premise of the site is intriguing, but the ultimate execution leaves a bit to be desired from a performance perspective. You be the judge, but I’m not sure that it leaves me with an impression that French wines are the most sophisticated and nuanced in the world (which, bien sur, they are).

I actually really like this site! I usually don’t go for French wine, because it is a little daunting trying to choose….but this helped me out a lot, and took the “snob” factor out of buying it….
I’ll pass it on for sure! And have a glass or four!
