What to expect
You'll meet at Chamrey and climb into a modified Defender suited to the steep Reims slopes. The driver navigates you to elevated recovery points unavailable on regular routes, pausing for orientation and photographs across terraced vineyards. You'll then step out for a guided walk through the rows before arriving at a cellar or small producer's estate. There you'll taste brut champagne straight from their reserves, learning production methods directly. The pace suits all fitness levels; walking sections are gentle and optional viewpoints break up the drive.
