Practical advice
How should you arrange transport for tastings?
The safest plan is to decide who will not drink or arrange a driver in advance.
Reims and Épernay are easy to reach by train. In the wine villages, distances look short on a map but transport is limited. Do not rely on finding a ride after each appointment. Book a driver or tour in advance, use a spittoon at professional tastings and never drive after drinking.
Book fewer appointments and give each visit more time.
