Champagne Wishes

North Americans tend to think Champagne is purely posh, celebratory, and extravagant. There's a stigma that the golden bubbly elixir is for the elite and those who really need a reason for festivity. But apparently none of this is true...as long as you're in Champagne, France. Everyday is a Champagne day in Reims, the major city of this department. A two hour jaunt from Paris can bring you your real Champagne wishes but, we're not sure about the caviar.

If you really want to go all the way, looks like you should stay at Les Crayeres Hotel. Your entire stay at this hotel can revolve around Champagne all the while being in Champagne. It doesn't get anymore Champagn-ey than this. The hotel is in an old castle and has a total of 19 rooms. You'll feel like Marie-Antoinette in this place with marble floors, ancient art, antique French furniture, all situated on marvelously kept park.

They offer a Champagne package for the whopping price of 1930 euros for two days. Okay so we take that back about needing to celebrate with Champagne, this trip better be celebrating something. The hotel and package claims they are:

A unique place, paired with the most prestigious champagne wine. The unexpected becomes possible for two days marrying "Les Crayeres" fine cuisine and Dom Perignon Champagne.

From the moment they pick you up to the moment you leave, and during your tour of Dom Perignon, they are shoving Champagne down your throat.

Truth be told, you may as well stay at the Holiday Inn Reims though, that way you can afford to bring a lot of Don P back home.
