I have been to many Champagne houses in Reims. It really depends what you are looking for. The big houses give you a bog standard tour and are not exactly exciting - whereas you can easily go to a small house and get a private tour and actually see how things work - none of this hand riddled rubbish.
Of the Big names that you mention - I enjoyed the Mumm tour the best.
We toured the Piper Heidsieck. You get in a remote controlled car and go thru the caves as they explain the process. It is programmed for whatever language you speak. Afterwards a glass of champagne, then their gift shop which was really nice.
thank you, pJ
yes but, which ones are in walking distance of the train station???
About 20 minutes to Taitinger. Neat cellars, under ruins of an abbey and old roman quarries.
