My favorite place to go in France is Champagne country, west of Paris, on a quick two-hour train.

We have been to Champagne a half-dozen times, and I can’t wait for the next trip! Last summer, I planned a five-day dream trip for Breathless Sparkling Wine and its members. Of course, since I have been writing the CHAMPAGNE WIDOWS novels, I chose to take them to Veuve Clicquot, Pommery, and Bollinger, where they could experience the women who revolutionized the champagne!

The itinerary is included here for future reference. Be sure to make reservations beforehand to maximize your experience. Thanks to BREATHLESS WINES for this fabulous video of our champagne tour!
