Great tour in the cellars

Commenté le 29/05/2026

We had a wonderful visit to the cellars and thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. The tour itself was very interesting and well organized, and the explanation of the champagne-making process was both informative and engaging. One of the highlights for us was the beautiful little park outside. After the tour, it was the perfect place to relax, sit in the sunshine, and enjoy a glass (or two!) of champagne in a peaceful setting. The atmosphere was charming and made the visit feel even more special. Overall, a great experience that combines excellent hospitality, interesting insights into champagne production, and a lovely place to unwind. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the Champagne region.

Intimate tour

Lovely tour. Nice to explore a smaller champagne house - good balance from the very big, very commercial tours. Lots of information and personable staff.

Great experience

I liked the friendliness and good english spoken of the staff. Although we didn't know this winery before, it turned to be very educating. Very big cellar with interesting bottles. The champagne we tasted was very nice.
