MONTAGNE DE REIMS
Located between the Marne and Vesle Rivers—and just south of the eponymous city of Reims—the Montagne de Reims is one of the most diverse areas for Champagne production, as the area’s mosaic of soils renders it capable of growing all three of the region’s most widely used varieties: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Meunier (though Pinot Noir is most common). Home to 25 villages, of which 10 are designated grand crus, the Montagne de Reims covers an east-west surface area of approximately 30 kilometers, and according to the Union des Maisons de Champagne, more than 2,000 hectares are currently under vine.
