The city of Reims is home to Champagne’s own royalty: you and your colleagues and employees will be able to explore the cellars of household names such as Taittinger, Ruinart or Philipponnat. Each of the Grandes Maisons offers something different. They are the perfect place to get an idea of the hidden secrets of the world’s favorite beverage, with experts explaining the centuries-old alchemy that goes into its production.
Taittinger
Under the careful yet daring oversight of the Taittinger family, the Champagnes of the fabled house of Taittinger are more refined than ever. Their legendary Comtes de Champagne ranks among the finest Blanc de Blancs in the world.
Philipponnat Champagne
For those in the know, famous for its coveted Clos des Goisses vineyard, Philipponnat combines the Burgundian concept of terroir with the Champagne art of assemblage.

This prestigious house, claims its prime position at the top of the hill on Rue des Crayères and possesses the deepest and most spectacular crayères (chalk cellars) in the region – the only ones to be classified as a national monument, a unique opportunity to explore this mythical underworld.
Champagne certainly comes pretty high on the list when it comes to unmissable destinations for true wine lovers & foodies, your visit will end up with an aperitif/tasting in their private lounge followed by a 5-course dinner paired with the famous Dom Ruinart blend.
