La Champenoise Poster
The Champagne region, outside of Paris, was recently listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, awarding the know-how of Champagne makers as well as the beauty of the cellars and hillsides.
Indeed, Champagne producers have a unique know-how that is famous worldwide.
Yet, contrarily to major French wine regions such as Bourgogne or Bordeaux, Champagne did not have a local celebration of international calibre.
To fill this void, three entrepreneurs, two from the Champagne region and one from Bordeaux, created La Champenoise, a Champagne festival that will take place June 25 and 26, 2016 in Reims, in Champagne.
For the first time, La Champenoise - the Celebration of Champagne-, will gather all in one place, tourists, amateurs, and wine professionals through a popular and unique event aimed at uniting all Champagne aficionados.
“All the major French wine regions have their celebration, sometimes even at an international level… Champagne is the most festive and friendly wine there is, and we wish to celebrate it with this event that unites all the players involved in its production, whether it is trading houses, cooperatives or independent winemakers,” explains Franck one of the founding entrepreneurs of the project.
La Champenoise will be the largest gathering of Champagne producers opened to a wide audience.
The event will take place in mythical Halles du Marché du Boulingrin, known for their architectural and historical foundation.
