Morning discovery and tasting of Champagne, from Reims to Hautvillers
What if you start your day with a walk in Champagne? Breathe the fresh air of the countryside, enjoy the landscape, but also and above all, meet the famous champagne producers and taste their specialties. If you are tempted by the experience, go to the Reims train station at 8:50 am and board the Sparkling Tour mini-van. You will be treated to a sparkling morning of discovery!
Head to the cellar of a "Premier Cru" producer for an immersive introduction. The cellar master will tell you about the "méthode champenoise" and will let you taste the 3 best champagnes of the house. This sensory kick-off will be followed by a visit of Hautvillers, the village where the first champagne is said to have been born. Known as the "Cradle of Champagne", this historical place will take you on a journey through the winegrowing traditions and the legend of Dom Pérignon
After this cultural visit of Hautvillers, find yourself in the middle of the vineyard to immortalize its beauty. This is the opportunity to take some pictures as a souvenir, and to ask some questions to the local winemakers. A visit of a cellar at a "Premier or Grand Cru" producer will conclude this morning of discovery. 3 other types of champagne will be served to you to make your day even more beautiful!
