Discover the whirlwind of the harvest with the Empreinte des fées
Live an authentic, human experience at the heart of the Champagne Dumont vineyard in Mondeville, by becoming a grape picker for a day with l’Empreinte des Fées.
Tina, the fairy matriarch, will open the doors of the vineyard to you with her benevolent smile. She’ll tell you all about the history of the estate and the highlights of this enduring family business. Laurent, the winemaker, will share his passion for vines and good wine with you over breakfast. He’ll introduce you to the specific characteristics of the terroir and the grape varieties. He’ll also tell you all about the house secrets that go into making the unrivalled products for which Domaine de Mondeville is famous. Pruning shears in hand, you’re ready to pick these sun-drenched fruits!
After the morning’s picking, the hosts will treat you to a convivial meal with a glass of champagne. It’s also an opportunity for winegrowers and pickers to chat. The meal is followed by a visit to the press, which includes a tasting of the grape juice. The day ends with a visit to the cellars: a veritable treasure trove of vintages.
Wine lovers, the day’s program is designed to immerse you in this world, and all in a very convivial atmosphere!

L'empreinte des fées
Would you like to discover the Champagne vineyards but not only...?
Looking for a change of scenery and nature?
Would you like to treat yourself to something different from conventional restaurants?
High above the fog and clinging to the steep hillsides, the Champignol terroir shapes wines with an inimitable identity. Committed to preserving nature, the Domaine de Mondeville, where L'empreinte des fées is located, is in the process of converting to organic and biodynamic farming.
On the limestone and stony plateau of southern Champagne, in the heart of vineyards and forests, enjoy singular experiences and dare to taste the fruits of a gourmet and little-known terroir, for pure moments of happiness and crazy experiences.
After discovering Champagne and nature, set off in search of Champagne truffles with the truffle grower and her faithful companion in the forests surrounding the village.
Eco-responsible, authentic and friendly, L'empreinte des fées is sure to be an outing to remember.
