Cheers! - We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to several small Champagne Houses for private tastings (where we had the opportunity to buy a special bottle at each) and Moët & Chandon for a tour of the caves and a tasting at the end. Last we visited an interactive Museum about Champagne. Our guide, Cyrus, was personable and educational. We would highly recommend this trip.
