- Morning:
Your driver guide welcomes you at the reception of your hotel for a full day tour in the Champagne vineyard.
Your day begins with the discovery of a domain located in the Marne Valley. During a guided tour of the winery and its cellars, you will learn the process of Champagne elaboration. Then, you have the opportunity to discover the art of blending during an oenology class especially organized for you. You will taste the base wines of the 3 grape varieties and you will learn how to recognize their typical aromas. The tour ends with a commented tasting of 3 Champagnes of the domain.
You then head to Hautvillers - a charming Unesco-listed village which is nested on the historical hillsides of Champagne. Trace the history of Champagne and visit the church where Dom Perignon is buried. This famous monk is said to have invented the blending of crus and to have brought major improvements to the Champagne making process.
- Lunch:
Your lunch takes place in the most charming restaurant of the village. There, you enjoy a tasting lunch composed of regional specialties paired with 3 single varietal cuvées.
Your oenology initiation continues during this lunch: while discovering Champagne and food pairing, you can also compare the specificities of the 3 types of grapes (100% Chardonnay, 100% Pinot Noir, 100% Pinot Meunier)
- Afternoon
In the early afternoon, you head to Epernay for a walking tour of the Avenue de Champagne, where the opulent mansions of Great Champagne Houses are settled.
In the middle of the Avenue, you stop at the magnificent property of a top-range Champagne producer from the Côte des Blancs area. During a commented tasting of 3 Champagnes, you will discover the specificities of this iconic vineyard and the minerality of the Chardonnay grown in Premier and Grand Cru villages of this area.
Your day in the Champagne vineyards ends with a drive on the Champagne Scenic Road of the Montagne de Reims vineyard. A last tasting is scheduled: discover the unique aromas of 3 Champagnes from this area - renowned for the quality of its Pinot Noir.
