A very pleasant combination of water and wine. Along with its three streams and the Marne River canal going accross town, you may really soak in a champagne bath in this town !

Joseph Perrier’s house

The town’s best address: Joseph Perrier champagne producer selected by the Royal Court of Great Britain. The wonderful chalky cellars are actually located at ground level and not underground. This great champagne producer is still traditionally run by the family. The special vintage especially ordered by the Queen for Prince Charles’ wedding is even still produced. 69 Avenue de Paris, 3151016 Châlons-en-Champagne
