EVER BEEN TO CHAMPAGNE BEFORE? IT‘S LOVELY THERE. YOU CAN DRINK CHAMPAGNE UNTIL YOU DROP AND SEE HOW THE FROTHY SPARKLING WINE IS MADE AND STORED. DETAILS ON THE EXACT PRODUCTION PROCESS, THE SECOND FERMENTATION IN THE BOTTLE AND THE “RIDDLING”, ARE BEST SKIPPED AT THIS POINT, BECAUSE WE ACTUALLY WANT TO TALK ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE. IT IS MUCH MORE ABOUT THE JOURNEY, WHICH, AS EVERYONE KNOWS, IS THE DESTINATION. EVERYONE CAN MAKE THEIR OWN WAY TO AND FROM THE NORTH-EASTERN PROVINCE OF FRANCE AS THEY WISH. OUR MERRY BAND OF TRAVELLERS DECIDED, DESPITE MIXED WEATHER FORECASTS, FOR A JOURNEY BY VESPA. MIND YOU, WITHOUT A BROOM WAGON, AS IS TRADITION WITH US.
