A WEEK IN CHAMPAGNE

For five heavenly nights, you’ll call The Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa your home away from home. This five-star boutique resort in Champillon, France boasts luxurious rooms with breathtaking views over the vineyards of Champagne. Lodging includes full access to the resort’s amenities including a sauna, steam room, swimming pool and fitness center.

Of course, the highlight of the trip will be the vineyard excursions! We’ll visit several private wineries and get behind-the-scenes tours from the winemakers themselves. These curated experiences will offer a rare glimpse into the heart of this majestic region and first-hand knowledge from the Champenoise families themselves.

From casually sipping bubbles on terraces overlooking the vineyards of Champagne to venturing further afield to dine by candlelight in a French Chateau, you’ll enjoy six days of handcrafted dining experiences, all featuring curated Champagne and wine pairings. Everything from Michelin-starred meals to authentic French feasts prepared by locally acclaimed traditional chefs, these meals will leave lasting memories. 

For those curious and eager to consider themselves a Champagne expert, you’ll have several opportunities to join me for unique tasting classes. Together, we’ll discover Champagne’s history and learn more about the specific process and techniques of making champagne: from growing grapes to aging it in the cellar, and everything in between.
