What you can expect
Parking is located directly on the estate.
Your tour begins at our family farm, located in La Neuville-aux-Larris, near Hautvillers, Reims, and Épernay.
During this discovery, the winemaker will share with you the history of his family, his profession, and many anecdotes about life on the estate. You will also have the opportunity to take part in the champagne-making process with an introduction to the traditional riddling of the bottles.
The tour will continue with a pleasant walk of about 500 meters to the tasting venue, along a pedestrian path lined with pastures and vineyards. Along the way, we will discuss the formation of the Champagne landscapes, the birth of our terroirs, and the work of the vineyard. The winemaker will explain, in particular, how a vine works and the history of the Pinot Meunier grape variety, which is emblematic of our area.
Upon your arrival at the wash house, take time to admire an exceptional panorama of the Marne Valley. This 18th-century building, built of stone and nestled in the heart of the vineyards, has a unique history that the winemaker will tell you about.
The tour will end with a commented tasting of three cuvées from the estate in this unique setting.
At the end of the experience, you can buy our champagnes to take away, taste them on the spot, or have them shipped directly to your home.
