By this stage of the A7 you will already have driven through the vineyards of the champagne production region, and their discreetly affluent villages.  If you've stopped to try and find a bargain, then you'll already know that prices for a bottle of bubbly with a recognisable name are likely to be cheaper in your local supermarket at home.

Here, though, is the chance to try some fine wines and also experience some of the history and culture which make the labels something a bit special. And of course the dog can come too!
