As on all our wonderful original champagne weekends, we are based in the lively city of Reims and over the weekend. Our aim is to introduce you to a wide spectrum of Champagnes, to visit a good cross section of Houses, from those that forged Champagne’s reputation such as Taittinger, Pol Roger and Veuve Clicquot as well as to search out quality growers and rising stars in the villages.

You will taste around 25 Champagnes over the course of the weekend, starting at breakfast. You will receive a special welcome and generous tastings at houses that we have been visiting for many years. These are some of the many advantages of choosing to travel with Arblaster & Clarke on our original champagne weekends. Our successful formula has changed very little since 1987 – it was totally ground breaking then and remains the market leader now.
