Champagne Travel Tips

Champagne

Champagne is a largely agricultural region famed around the world for the sparkling wines that have been made here since the days of Dom Pérignon. According to French law, only bubbly from the region grown in designated areas, then aged and bottled according to the strictest standards, can be labeled as champagne.

The production of the celebrated wine takes place mainly in two départements: Marne, whose metropolis is the 'Coronation City' of Reims, famed for its medieval churches; and the less prestigious Aube, whose préfecture is the ancient and picturesque city of Troyes, one of the best places in France to stroll among half-timbered houses.
