Champagne DOMI

Reviewed By helen1kuroki - West Chester, United States

My daughter and I went on a one day champagne tour excursion from Paris. Just 8 people were in the group, all English speakers. We had a French tour guide who did a wonderful job translating from French to English as we were shown the property and guided through the process of champagne making by the owner Stephane. We had a wonderful time in his tasting room as well. A kind and unassuming gentleman, this champagne master was a wonderful host. As others have mentioned, he does not currently ship outside of France but we were able to purchase a few bottles there. The trip was a delight and a real highlight of our two weeks in France.

A lovely little spot for quite a nice champagne. We tasted and then purchased a 2015 vintage blanc de noirs. It felt like being in someone’s house. It was slightly awkward being just two of us for the tasting but of course a little champagne relieves the tension. In nicer weather it would be fun to sit outside.

Champagne Julien Chopin

Our house is located in the village of Monthelon, 6 kms from Epernay, the capital of Champagne in the « Coteaux Sud d’Epernay ». Monthelon is a typical Champagne village, nestled in the heart of the vineyard. The family has cultivated our vineyards at Monthelon since the XVIII century, but it was only in 1947 that the brand name Julien Chopin was born (or created). Our vineyards are located in the “Coteaux Sud d’Epernay” where Pinot Meunier is the main “cru” (villages of Monthelon, Mancy and Moussy) and in the “Cotes des Blancs” for Chardon-nay (villages of Chouilly, Cuis and Grauves).

Champagne Didier Goussard

Marie-Helene will guide you to the cellars via the impressive ornamental kitchen garden. An introductory tour will take you through the major stages in the making of Champagne.A Champagne tasting session in the stone vaulted cellar is a most pleasant highlight. The only wish of this small Champagne house is to provide you with a true insight into the Winegrowing Spirit!

Champagne Henry de Vaugency

Reviewed By daniel169 - Frankfurt, Germany

My wife & I re-visited Champagne Henry De Vaugency today, and had a delightful time tasting champagne including a full tour of the historic wine makers, with Pascal Henry the 8th generation of the family winemakers. This is our third visit of the establishment that has its origin in 1732. Nothing has really changed in this very friendly environment except for an updating in the labels for the champagne. The champagne itself is still superb. Our favourite is the Louis followed by the Amoureux. If you are travelling to the Reims area we thoroughly recommend a visit to this establishment in the village of Oger. The personalise attention of the owner makes it a trip to remember.
