Champagne
Discover France’s
most sparkling region
and the only place in France to sample real champagne. A tiny paradise nestled just a short car journey from Paris, the Champagne region is everything synonymous with the charming and relaxing way of French life.
In Champagne, you will find gastronomic cuisine
in a refined setting, vineyards as far as the eye can see, tasting
the best champagne vintages in typical Champagne cellars, meeting the
winegrowers,
an authentic architecture with half timbered houses in the medieval city
of Troyes, antique shops and local specialities to bring home, as well
as a bargain not to be missed in Troyes' factory shops
As you take the Route Touristique du Champagne
(Champagne tourist route), with its random meanders, you'll be treated
to some really superb views.
As you venture along the quiet country lanes, be sure to stop by one of the many wine cellars, where you will be greeted with typical French hospitality. In
the wine vaults, that in some cases go back to the 12th Century, in the coolness
and the half-light, you should take the time to taste the
wine and to hear the producer tell you about its magic.
Discovering
this region on your bike will give you even more time to enjoy
the vineyard, landscapes and taste the champagne.
But be careful, do not cycle and drink!!
