Join Grape Harvest for earliest Champagne harvest in years
Champagne lovers are celebrating the earliest harvest in 180 years and there is now a chance to join Grape Escapes on its one-off VIP and Deluxe Harvest Weekend. The three-night escorted tour takes place over the August Bank Holiday from 26-29 August and offers an intimate visit to Champagne’s vineyards to join the annual ‘vendange’ and visit houses which are generally unavailable to the public.
Put some fizz into 2011
It seems people have more to celebrate now than they have for the last two years, according to sales of Champagne. Britains drank five million more bottles in 2010 than the 12 months previous and now can celebrate in style with a Champagne tasting tour.
