4 of us did a private champagne tasting tour through France Intense. Pierre Baudoin was our private guide. Our first stop was Lemaire. Lemaire is a small champagne house with enthusiastic and proud champagne producers. We had a tour of the beautiful property and champagne cellars then tasted the most vibrant and delicious champagne we had ever had. To be able to sit and savor this amazing champagne in the region where the grapes are grown was the experience of a lifetime.

We went for the wine tour and tasting experience while staying in the Champagne region on holiday. We booked it fairly last minute but so happy we did. Mathilde was absolutely fantastic as both guide and expert. Incredibly friendly, funny and warm, she is also passionate about her work. She kept it interesting the whole way through and answered the group’s questions with genuine pleasure. For how much you pay you get an experience that is incredible value and unforgettable. If we ever come back we’ll be sure to stop by again.

Went on a Monday as part of a day trip out of Paris. We sat in their very comfortable living-room style tasting room and the owner came over and we talked and he helped translate between us and his dad. The Champagne house has been in their family for 5 generations, since the mid 1800's i think. Above the welcoming environment, the wines were great. We ordered some to be shipped home and can't wait to taste them, once they arrive.
