Chateau de Rilly, Rilly-la-Montagne. A lovely spot to stay and explore the region from |
Lobster sarnie in a local one star Michelin in Ay. |
The champagne lunch menu. All local/grower champagnes |
Roger Brun's English export Champagne. As drunk in barracks! |
Phillipe Brun offers wonderful local/grower Champagnes at his Cave |
Well worth a visit to Roger/Phillipe Brun's Cave in Rilly |
Just some of the millions of champagne bottles ageing at Moet |
And a few more. 28kms of tunnels, many dug by hand in the 19th Century |
The world's largest wine barrel in the foyer at Mercier |
A reconstruction of how it used to be at Mercier |
Classy display of ageing champagne bottles in Mercier's 18kms of cellars |
No words needed here |
Starting a tasting before dinner in the vault/cellar at Mercier |
I can't talk enough how about how good their champagne is. Stunning. |
Birthday dinner in the Mercier vault/cellar. 30 metres underground. Wow. |
Dinner, all with Mercier's best champagnes. Who says you can't have white/rose with beef? |
Reims Catherdral, nearby. Gorgeous |
