Special Harvest Days
Enjoy a day harvesting grapes in our vineyards on La Côte des Blancs. Experience for yourself what goes on behind the scenes with a day out during the "Vendanges", the annual grape harvest. After a traditional rural breakfast at 9 am it's off to the vineyards to try your hand at picking the grapes. The Harvest is always a time of celebration at Champagne Launois and you can be sure that there will be plenty of opportunities to raise a glass or two and the day culminates in a champagne lunch in the wonderful seting of the chateau.
