We were facinated and impressed by the Biodynamic method being used in wine making at this Chateau, and the results are impressive. So when we were back in the area a couple of years later, we just had to pop in for a couple of bottles of Berty!

Delphine was an awesome tour guide. She met us at the arranged point at the train station. We went to Pommery as Veuve was closed but there was no disappointment . Delphine’s English was excellent. She’s a local with a wealth of knowledge about Reims, it’s rich history, plus she knows all things champagne from vine to glass. Not only did we learn about everything about champagne and it’s history but also learned over a magnificent lunch the many things about champagne from the nose, glasses, pairings and how tastes can change with food. Rather than drop us back at the meeting point after the tour finished, Delphine went the extra again and delivered us back to our accomodation. There’s so much more to tell and all of it great. If you’re considering a champagne tour with the lot, Delphine is your tour guide. Neil & Karen, Australia
