Cellar Visits

The Champagne Houses take great pride in their traditions and are more than happy to show visitors around their cellars. It is here that Champagne wines are painstakingly aged for at least 15 months, slowly developing those magical qualities that make them a toast for even the most spirited occasion.
The Champagne cellars are hewn out of chalk, some of them on the site of former crayères (ancient Gallo-Roman chalk pits). Dark and still, they provide that cool, even temperature and unchanging degree of humidity so essential to perpetuate the Champagne legend.
