The Warriors emerged victorious from their only previous visit to the Stade Marcel Deflandre, as tries from Callum Gibbins, Niko Matawalu and Kyle Steyn secured a famous 27-24 victory.
Scotstoun will then play host to familiar European foes Exeter a week later, as the English outfit arrive in Glasgow on the weekend of 17/18/19 December.
Wilson’s men will then make the return trip to Sandy Park on the weekend of 14/15/16 January, as the two sides meet in European competition for the fourth time in the last five seasons.
A potentially pivotal home tie then awaits in the final round of group stage action, with La Rochelle heading to Scotstoun on the weekend of 21/22/23 January.
Full kick-off times, dates and ticketing will be confirmed in due course.
