An entire tour dedicated solely to champagne! And there’s nothing strange about that. You can explore champagne throughout a whole journey, just as you might with Burgundy or Bordeaux.
The variety among different champagnes is greater than you might think—especially if you choose interesting visits to different types of producers, mixing large houses with smaller growers. Despite the strict regulations in Champagne, there is plenty of room for individual producers to leave their personal mark on the champagne.
The grower influences everything—from the work in the fields to the final stage, the addition (or not) of dosage, which often makes the wine a bit rounder.
We learn all about the production process, and being here in person makes it much easier to understand how and why certain choices are made. It’s a complex wine to produce. We’ll explore the vineyards, visit many different types of cellars where thousands—or even millions—of bottles rest for many years before they’re ready to be enjoyed.
Amazing lunches paired entirely with champagne, of course. No red wine here!
