Patrimoine Crayères – Visit to the Maréchal de France at Domaine Balincourt
Beneath the cobblestones of Châlons-en-Champagne, nearly 30 meters underground, discover the Crayères Balincourt, an exceptional site listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. An unforgettable wine tourism experience that combines heritage, expertise, and wine tasting.
Guided by a passionate expert, explore these impressive galleries carved into the chalk since Gallo-Roman times. Dating back nearly 2,000 years, they now provide an exceptional natural environment for aging the champagnes of Maison Louis Balincourt.
Throughout your visit, you’ll learn about the different stages of champagne production through historical tools and clear explanations of a craft passed down through generations. An experience that is both educational and sensory.
The tour concludes with a guided tasting of three iconic cuvées: Brut Séduction, Brut Premier Cru, and—depending on your choice—Brut de Craie or Rosé Brut. A refined moment to awaken your senses.
