International Wine Communicator of the Year and Champagne expert Tyson Stelzer invites you to join him on an intimate, behind-the-scenes tour of Champagne. Tyson will personally introduce you to the most celebrated houses and growers, escorting you through their ancient cellars, elegant private dining rooms, lauded vineyards and tasting their finest cuvées.
Your week will include six nights at Résidence Eisenhower, dinner at Le Parc at Les Crayères or Arnaud Lallement’s L’Assiette Champenoise and ten champagne house visits. A few free nights throughout the week provide opportunity for you to relax and plan your own program.
The Champagne Tour is an opportunity to experience exclusive access to ten of champagne’s finest estates from a group of 15 that Tyson has selected for the exceptional experiences they offer:
Billecart-Salmon
Bollinger
Charles Heidsieck
Deutz
Dom Pérignon
Krug
Louis Roederer
Philipponnat
Pol Roger
Rare Champagne
Ruinart
Salon
Taittinger
Veuve Clicquot
Veuve Fourny
The programs arranged with the houses are not general tourist experiences but rather a privilege of the company of their principals, chef de caves and brand ambassadors.
