Visiting Lac du Der also means taking advantage of Champagne's vineyards.
World famous for its exquisite sparkling drink, Champagne has to be visited slowly, explored fully and tasted with reverence.
From the Côte des Blancs, birthplace of Chardonnay, past the hillsides of the Montagne de Reims and Côte des Bars, the Champagne Trail is a unique opportunity to discover the secrets of the drink of kings.
