Morning Champagne Tour and family growers from Reims
Join your expert guide at 9:20AM in front of the Reims Centre Train Station Tourist Office and dive into the world of Champagne. Visit two small, family-owned producers and gain an insider’s perspective on Champagne making. Start with an in-depth exploration of a boutique vineyard. Learn about the "méthode champenoise" and discover the entire process from grape pressing to cellar aging. Enjoy a guided tour of the estate, including their cuverie and cellars, before tasting three of their finest cuvées. Next, continue your Champagne journey with a visit to another estate. Although this stop is shorter, it’s no less impactful. Engage directly with the owners, tour their vineyard, and indulge in three more distinct cuvées, exploring the diversity of Champagne’s flavors and aromas in a quick yet rich experience. The tour concludes at 1:10 PM back at Reims Centre Train Station. Whether you're a seasoned Champagne lover or new to the world of sparkling wines, this half-day tour offers an authentic, memorable insight into the heart of the Champagne region.
