Fantastic tour and... - Fantastic tour and tasting in a lovely setting. Alvaro was a wonderful guide, both for educating us on the region and every step of champagne making, as well as a detailed introduction to distinguishing the aromas and other characteristics of the champagnes we tasted. Highly recommend.

A must - I had a really enjoyable and fascinating afternoon in the Champagne region. The tour group was small, which made it feel exclusive and personalized. Our guide, Suzanne, was incredibly knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. Next time, I plan to spend the entire day with A la Française.
