We visited Pommery on a half day tour with A la Francaise/ Champagne. This is place that you have to see. It is not your traditional winery and the background is too much to properly describe here. What they have achieved is simply stunning. Our guide Chloe was fantastic.

This should be the #2 attraction in Reims (#1, Cathedral). It was the most outstanding champagne house we visited in the area; better than V. Cliquot, Moet Chandon, Ruinart. That is because of the stunning art in the caves. Wait to you see it. It is easy to just arrange your own trip and try to do it on the days their restaurant is open--that was an amazing lunch. We also toured the Villa across the street and that was great. Start your day with the Villa; tour the vineyards/caves after a great lunch at their restaurant. Wonderful place.

It depends what you want from a visit to a champagne house. This is deliberately different, and at least in our experience an extremely 'self-serve' style - surprisingly casual for a brand with claims to prestige. The Villa Demoiselle over the road (a Vranken property) is a really exceptional building for fans of deco/nouveau, with a glass of champagne at the end. Really well worth seeing. Pommery is basically an art installation in the chalk cellars, with a an art gallery in another part of the building. This was totally self-guided, and was certainly diverting and fun, but if you want to learn about champagne, maybe think of somewhere else. Staff seemed a bit disinterested, eg not taking care to check which language version of the information leaflets we needed. It's certainly well worth a combined visit, but not necessarily for the reasons you might expect.

Most champagne houses were not open on Tuesday but we kept looking and secured a spot for an English tour at Pommery and so pleased we did. We turned out to be the only visitors so we ended up with an extraordinarily inexpensive priva tree tour. Etienne, the guide, was excellent. A wonderful mix of deep knowledge of champagne, history and production combined with the history of the industry. The highlight though was his briefing on the amazing Madame Pommery, a brilliant businesswoman and scientist well before her time. The tour was primarily deep underground and involved walking through some of 18 kms of cellars, past bottles dating back nearly 150 years. Modern art work and ancient signage and equipment added to the atmosphere. We wrapped with a tasting and a further briefing. The guide spoke excellent English and handled our numerous questions. A really enjoyable afternoon.

My daughter and I did this tour with an accompanying lunch and tastings after. Loved the tour - both the information and history of Pommery as well as fabulous art installed throughout the tour. Lunch gave a couple of options for each of the 3 courses and was absolutely delicious. Accompanying Champagne tastings with each course made the lunch spectacular.

Within walking distance of the middle of Reims, Pommery looks like a brightly painted Victorian institutional building from the outside. Pommery had a rich history and leaves a strong legacy behind; the cellar visit reflects this. This is a very different experience to the cellar visits in Epernay with cellars being of a much grander scale. Huge shafts descend to the cellar ceilings bringing in light and humidity. Large art installations provide a gallery experience. there are regular 19th neoclassical friezes of a massive scale. This remains a working cellar and more workmanlike storage can be glimpsed in addition to the storage vaults. Thanks to Luis, our guide for the day who really brought the stories behind all of these features to life.

I had an excellent time visiting Pommery’s champagne house in September 2023. The staff was friendly, informative, and hospitable. There caves were amazing to explore. Guests were able to sample 2 glasses of champagne.

Kind and helpful staff Villa was fascinating - we did the double visit and tasting. Also the self guided tour. Champagne caves were really interesting and filled with interesting art works and reliefs - a champagne gallery !! Also still used. Tasting was very good 🥂 and of course we went away with a few more bottles of delicious and delightful champagne than planned 🙄😄 All very relaxed. Easy to find. Easy free parking! Good to go early as it was much busier in the afternoon. Recommended!

Great Experience, even with 2 kids (7y and 13y old). Its a mix of champagne caves, museum, interactive installations (like legos), beautiful grounds. Great trip for families. It is 45 min walk from Reims train station, so a very nice stroll to explore the city.

Nice experience but I’m sure it would have been better with a tour guide. We booked a self guided tour. Champagne was very nice. Although we did enjoy visiting Veuve Cliquot more. If you have time it’s worth a stop.
