Tour
What Can You Look Forward To?
We’ve prepared a nearly two-hour programme, during which you’ll discover the secret of how the nation’s best known high quality sparkling wines are made.
For instance you will learn the difference between the traditional and Charmat production methods, how yeast is shaken down, and how sediments are removed from sparkling wines. You will be in the place where it all happens and will see in person how our wines are made.
Because we let you see under the hood of the production process itself, you will need to order in advance.
