Interesting and tasty. We learn there that 1st pressing is for champagne, 2nd pressing too, 3rd pressing for ratafia, a type of liqueur that reminds one of the taste of prunes. Our driver-guide was efficient and friendly.

Very knowledgeable and friendly guide, superb English for those of us who didn't speak French. Explained everything clearly and answered all questions.
This tour is a must-do if you’re in the Reims/Epernay area! Justine our guide was super friendly and knowledgeable, and answered every question we threw at her! Would wholeheartedly recommend.
Marcel (the van) & Marjorie were wonderful hosts. Thank you for the ride, the knowledge and a really interesting tour. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone.
Had a very nice and informative tour with Clem in the Renault van called Marcel. Clem knew a lot about the big houses on Avenue Champagne, but her knowledge she shared outside the village and among the vineyards was absolutely superb. In a beautiful spot between the grapevines, we received an explanation of the entire grape growing process. During the tour at a small-scale winery, we received further explanation about making champagne. The tasting afterwards was very delicious. A real recommendation to take this tour!
This was our 3rd trip with My Vintage Tour Company. We keep going back with different friends and family, and would do so again. Super vehicles, great guides, and a very nice variety of champagne producers, giving you a really good understanding of the industry, and the hard work and skill that it takes to produce great champagne.
The tour was very good. Dear guide who spoke excellent English and explained everything well. The trip in the Renault vintage bus was very nice. Tripadvisor helped us super well when it turned out that I had planned my booking on the wrong date. Again my thanks to My Vintage Tour Company for that. We would not have liked to miss the tour
Superb experience. Marjorie is an excellent guide, attentive and fascinating in her explanations. I recommend it without hesitation.
Fun and very informative trip through the vineyards in a cute old Renault! Margaret was the best guide and we were constantly joking and chatting with her!!
Super fun concept and a knowledgeable and committed guide. The champagne tasted great!
