What to expect

Your guide meets you and handles transport to the vineyard. You'll walk through the domaine's approach to vine management, with emphasis on their low-impact farming methods. The winemaking explanation covers everything from pressing through to the méthode champenoise. Tasting follows, starting with lighter expressions and building to fuller releases. You'll sip three bottles over roughly an hour, with water and bread to cleanse your palate between samples. Adults explore the full range; under-18s get a still fruit juice or similar. The whole experience is unhurried—expect genuine conversation with staff who know their craft.
