I could get used to liking stuff like this...not a cheap wine but definitely a good bang for the buck mid range Champagne.

She was gracious & knowledgeable, and the tour was informative & so fun! Such an amazing property, Laurent-Perrier; & the stories alone could take hours to hear, but we had champagne to drink & a lot to learn. Until you're up close & personal do you get an appreciation for what goes into making a masterpiece like Laurent-Perrier. But the end product is worth everything. So I'll if you're ever in Champagne, France , stop in & ask for Nicole or call ahead of time. You'll be glad you did!

We learned a champagne is not a certifiable champagne unless it is produced in this region and also made only from 3 grape varieties - chardonnay, pinot noir, and pinot meunier.

Both were nice and it was a first for me to have a rose champagne.
