5.00We had very enjoyable tour and tasting my husband daughter and friend. We were accompanied by another so there plenty space opportunities to ask questions and see the Maison Champy with all its long history. The guide was very good and welcoming and obviously well informed. We very much enjoyed the wines we tasted and we did in fact buy some. This was the first tasting where we paid to taste which we found better than a free tasting where you can feel duty bound to buy some wine even if you were not sure about the wine! 🍷 We would all highly recommend a visit to Maison Champy.

Don't miss the oldest historic cellars!

5.00Thank you Hortence for a great tour. I had no idea @ Louis Pasteur and Gustave Eiffel's connection to Champy! See/learn about what's surrounding Beaune and below your feet in this lovely town. The tasting is accompanied by an appellation map and a thorough description of the Burgundy wine region and what you are drinking. You have time to look at the historical documents and enjoy a delightful tour right in the heart of Beaune. Highly recommend.

5.00This tour was fantastic and very interesting. Learn/see about the Champy connection to Gustave Eiffel and Louis Pasteur, and how burgundy wines used to be solely for religious use and were opened up to the world. Loads of history and good tasting to follow with a large map of the area showing you appellation, ratings, and you leave with a great overview of the wines of Burgundy. You also get to see what's underground the lovely town of Beaune.
A must-see in Beaune

5.00We had a great time at Maison Champy this weekend! The visit was really interesting, and our passionate Clemence guide made the experience even more enjoyable. The tasting at the end was a real pleasure. We were then greeted in the shop by Daniel, who knows wines at his fingertips and gave us excellent advice. We left delighted, with some very good bottles to enjoy.

5.00Visiting Beaune with Australian friends, we enjoyed visiting the cellars of the Champy house. Our guide Daniel, was particularly interesting, with a well-constructed route: a place full of history, a very didactic tasting and clear messages to help understand Burgundy climates.
Superb experience in oenology

5.00Excellent experience with Daniel , we had the chance to enjoy a prestige tasting in private. Visit of the cellars of the Champy house, history of its creation and presentation of the vineyard... and the organization and classification of Burgundy wines. The highlight of the visit was the tasting of 5 wines (2 villages, 2 premier crus and 1 grand cru) We learned a lot during this very pleasant experience with our guide.
