💡 Good to know
- Harvest hums through the Montagne de Reims villages and the vines gild by mid-October — cellar tours book out on weekends, reserve the grandes maisons ahead.
- The chalk cellars hold a constant 10°C whatever the sky does, and Troyes' half-timbered lanes do Christmas properly — a fine winter tasting trip.
