Informative and tasty!
Tom_H, October 2026
We enjoyed our sparkling tour with Christof very much. He was quite knowledgeable about the area, the history and the champagne process. We enjoyed the two small growers, the tastings were generous. We recommend this tour. The only downside was the van was a bit cramped for 8 people but tolerable. 8 people was a good size for the tour.

We had a great time and recommend this tour. It was great for people like us. We are not experts, but this tour gave us the overall picture of champagne wine production as well as tasting interesting wines that were quite specific to the region of champagne we were in. Our guide was of Spanish origin (Anna was her name...i think). She was excellent.
