Based on other reviews we (two couples) travelled to Remy Massin Champagne following our Sat-Nav from Troyes which took about 35mins using the Peage. We decided to miss the tour at 3pm, electing to taste a couple of Champagnes with a view to purchasing a few bottles and arrived around 3.45pm. The tour and tasting was just finishing and those people were leaving and so we received a personal tasting session of 5 different Champagne varieties with the owners grand-daughter. We belive the Champagne is very good - based on our tasting as we have not actually opened a bottle on our return home yet - and we purchased a mixed case of six bottles each at an average price of c.16E/bottle (you get an increasing discount if you buy 6,12, or 24 bottles and they will split this if you go as a group). We were probably at the Champagne House for around an hour and it was a very enjoyable experience.

Less severe than many cathedrals in France this is well worth a visit.You need time to enjoy the stained glass and the peace and tranquility of the surroundings. Suggest you visit here first before getting involved in Champagne tasting !

Definitely worth stopping by this church to see the architecture and stained glass windows. There are explanations in English about the different glass window panels, which definitely contributes to better understanding of their historical significance! There's also a lovely peaceful garden beside the church that make for a delightful overall visit!
