Dates – April 30th 2005
While my Mom was in town in April and early May, 2005, we made a day trip out to the Champagne region. We rented a car (another Renault Modus) and drove out to, first, Epernay to visit the Moet + Chandon and Mercier wineries and then on to Reims. We only did one formal wine tour (Moet + Chandon) which was quite nice, but felt very commercialized. The trip was great, but, hopefully next time we’ll be able to spend some more time there and visit some of the smaller, family-run wineries.
Some of my thoughts from abroad. You can also have a look at my photos from abroad.
