5.00If you are looking for a simple tour with a bunch of wine, this is not that tour. We loved this tour because of our guide. Thomas was incredibly knowledgeable about the region and the history that makes up the Champagne region, as well as the industry itself. In addition to visiting 2 small family winemakers, we visited the church where dom perignon is buried, and some other beautiful vistas. This is more than a wine tasting trip, it’s a lesson in how it all came to be and how it continues to evolve. Fascinating, great wines, and a bonus dog who entertained us at one of the wineries (see photos!)
Great Day!
