Cellar visit and tasting at Domaine Morize in Les Riceys
Immerse yourself in the world of wine at Domaine Morize in the pretty village of Les Riceys. Maison Morize Père et Fils invites you into its Cistercian cellar for a journey of history and the senses. It's an opportunity to discover the mysteries of how the cuvées are made, and to taste the champagnes for which the terroir is famous.
Entering this 11th-century cellar means entering a mysterious world where time has left its mark. As soon as you walk through the doors, your senses are sure to be awakened. It's in this stone cellar that the House will invite you to a tasting session of its cuvées. But in the meantime, let yourself be transported by the history of the estate and the Morize family.
Your host will share with you the secrets of champagne and Les Riceys wine-making in a convivial atmosphere. He'll tell you how the famous Champagnes, Vin Rosé des Riceys and Coteaux Champenois are made from the 3 grape varieties grown in the family vineyard. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Blanc are the hallmarks of Les Riceys, and the Morize family have passionately nurtured them since they settled in the commune in 1830.
At the end of the tour, this love of the vines and the land will be shared with you through a tasting of champagnes and champenois hillsides meticulously selected by the House.

SCEA MORIZE PERE ET FILS
Welcome to Domaine MORIZE in Les Riceys, a village of character, an exceptional terroir of the Côte des Bar, the largest in the Champagne region, located in the south of the Aube department, known for its three appellations: CHAMPAGNE / ROSÉ DES RICEYS / COTEAUX CHAMPENOIS.
Settled in Les Riceys since 1830, harvesters and handlers for 3 generations, we elaborate our Champagnes, Rosé des Riceys and Coteaux Champenois only with the grapes coming from our vineyard planted with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc. From these three grape varieties are born our vintages which are aged for a long time in our very old Cistercian cellars of the XIth and XIIth century.
It is in our very nice tasting cellar that we will have the pleasure to make you discover our Champagnes and Wines. We invite you to come and discover our domain where we will welcome you in a friendly atmosphere to share our passion.
