What is it about Champagne? Just saying its name is like a magic incantation
and no celebration is complete without it...
Come with me for a day: I will explain to you the grape varieties, where they grow, the land, the soil, why Champagne is the most complex and difficult wine to create and why it has no equivalent on this planet.
This very irresistable day includes the visit of two Champagne cellars (with tastings!!!), a large domain and
a small one, and also the visit of the Reims cathedral which was the "theater" for almost all the coronations of our kings. The cathedral barely survived WWI and has been remarkably restored (mainly thanks to Mr John D. Rockefeller). The smiling angel statue on its façade has since become the emblem of the city.
More recently interesting modern stained glass was added inside (including 3 big ones by Chagall).
Even though there's a lot of driving, it's one of my favorite tours because the scenery is so beautiful
and your eyes will sparkle as much as the Champagne you'll drink!
This tour takes between 10 and 11 hours with an average 2-hour-drive as we leave Paris and also when
we come back in the evening. It goes without saying that we will have a great lunch (not included)!
