LUNCH OR DINNER IN REFECTOIRE FOR FOUR PERSONS

1.THE CHAMPAGNE CELLARS OF POMMERY​
​
The Domaine Pommery opens the doors of its magnificent buildings in the Elizabethan style and invites you to discover its cellars and crayères (chalk pits), inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. ​
Veritable underground cathedrals dating back to the Gallo-Roman period, some of them boasting monumental bas reliefs sculpted in the chalk. An exceptional tour at 30 metres below ground, where you can also admire the works of art of the latest contemporary art exhibition.

2.THE GALLO-ROMAN CRAYÈRES, THE BRILLIANT IDEA OF MADAME POMMERY​
​
Exploited in the Gallo-Roman tradition for the buildings of the city and then essentially for the ramparts, the crayères of the medieval era of the St Nicaise hill were abandoned when stone and bricks replaced chalk. They were then turned into areas of shelter or exclusion and only occasional collapses were reminiscent of them.​
The brilliant idea of Madame Pommery consisted in interconnecting these huge pits by galleries and using the existing backfills to level the future cellar at less than 30 metres of depth, offering ideal conditions with a constant temperature at 10 degrees and humidity at 98% throughout the year. 

3. LES CLOS POMPADOUR ​
​
The Marquise de Pompadour is supposed to have said: “Champagne is the only wine that leaves a woman beautiful after drinking it”. Les Clos Pompadour, an evocative and charming homage to the famous Marquise, encompasses 25 hectares of walled vines, within the Domaine Pommery, at the heart of the city of Reims. These remarkable and precious Clos (enclosed parcels), which are a rarity in Champagne, produce a unique Champagne which is only available in magnum to perfect its exceptional features
