Private Champagne Day from Paris, WSET Guide: Family Grower and Veuve Clicquot Cellars
A private tour in English led by a certified WSET level 3 wine expert (level 4 in progress), who stays with the group all day. He explains Champagne and its region: how the wine is made, its history, its economy and some private stories about Champagne. The day starts with pickup at your accommodation in Paris and a drive to Champagne in a Mercedes van. The guide handles the logistics. The day shows two sides of Champagne: a well-known Champagne house and an independent, family-owned winemaker. Both are rated Grand Cru, Premier Cru or Cru.
