The majority of Champagne’s vineyards are located in the area between the cities of Reims and Épernay in northeastern France. This region is known as the “Champagne region” and it is home to some of the most famous Champagne houses in the world.


Reims is often considered the capital of the Champagne region and is home to many historic Champagne houses, including Veuve Clicquot, Taittinger, and Pommery. The city is also known for its stunning Gothic cathedral, Notre-Dame de Reims, which was the traditional site of the coronation of the kings of France.

Épernay, on the other hand, is located further south and is home to some of the region’s most prestigious Champagne houses, including Moët & Chandon, Perrier-Jouët, and Pol Roger. The town is also home to the Avenue de Champagne, a grand boulevard lined with beautiful 19th-century mansions that house many of the region’s Champagne houses.
