Description

a visit to the Cité du Champagne is an opportunity to have a real experience allowing you to appreciate both the history of the Champagne region and to understand the process of making the most prestigious wine.

We designed this tour allows you to travel among 4 different places: the historic cellars dug in the 18th century, the Museum of Champagne Trades, the House of the General Cooperative of The Winemakers and the 100% Grand Cru vines of Ao. The combination of this set allows you to understand the different facets of champagne.

The house of the oldest champagne wine cooperative illustrates the rise of the cooperative movement since the revolt of winemakers and the Champagne appellation in the 20th century.

The winery and the visit of the century-old cellars offer a journey through time and the mysteries of the making of Champagne.

The Champagne Trades Museum unveils the work of the vineyard and ancestral know-how such as cooperage and glassware through a unique collection of original tools, incredibly staged.

The hillsides of A-A, listed as a Unesco World Heritage Site, provide an understanding of the vine cycle from A to Z and how man has shaped landscapes.

At the end of your visit and according to the chosen formula, enjoy a guided tasting of Champagne Collet: discover the gluttony of the Brut cuvée Brut, the elegance of the Brut Art Deco Premier Cru cuvée, and the character and richness of a vintage Champagne.
