We may feature it on CNN hotspots. The Champagne region is located less than 100 miles east of Paris. And what a difference that short distance makes.
Life is a completely different pace from the rush of the city.
It's a flat, attractive area with a checkered history and of course a major claim to fame. It is the only place in the world where you can produce and sell REAL champagne. Everything else is, by law, an imitation. The cities most associated with fizz, Reims and Epernay, tend to hog the limelight. Champagne, the charming town of Troyes is just as important in its own quiet way.
