Day Eight: A Day in Epernay

Posted 06/10/2008 at 07:21 PM by Carolyn

After leaving Paris on day seven, Vivian and I were staying in the heart of the Champagne region. Reims is major city center of the area, and there's lots of great wine to be had there. We spent day seven exploring the town and tasting champagne from some of the biggest producers: Veuve Cliquot and Pommery. Of course we had a marvelous time, but these cookie-cutter tours and tastings couldn't even come close to the experience we had on day eight.
