Discovery of the Aube in vintage cars

Aube Rétro Tourisme

Hello,

My name is Michel Floirat. Curious about everything and everyone, I have travelled a lot in many countries. Today, I'll take you in a vintage car (Volvo Break Amazon of 1966 ...) on the small roads of the southern Champagne region to discover the last vineyards of Champagne before the big blue, but also the museums and the exceptional heritage of the region such as the house of General de Gaulle and its memorial, the Napoleon museum in Brienne le Château, the champagne cellars of Epernay, the Drappier house in Urville, the Motte Tilly castle, a jewel of the 18th century architecture or why not the astonishing Vix vase (500 < J.C) in its small charming museum located in Châtillon Sur Seine.

Here are so many trips, all in beauty and curves, from the Iron Age to the 2nd World War. Indeed what better than a collection car to criss-cross at a gentle pace, between forests, hills and undulating plains burned by the sun, the beautiful countryside of Aubois or the coast of the Bar, a soft backbone punctuated with golden vineyards in the fall.

Don't hesitate to tell me about your tastes. I will be able to invent a tailor-made tour for you and make you discover some of my secret addresses; like this winegrower who produces a unique cuvée from a rare Arbane grape variety, or this intact 12th century cellar: a raw beauty that can be read in the span of its slender arches.

This Southern Champagne will seduce all travelers, foreign or French, curious about the other and about a French art of living, when elegance vies with authenticity.
