Damery puts a particular focus on Champagne: two producers offer tours and tastings, while Champagne Telmont also offers food and wine pairings featuring regional products. At the same time, the Église Saint-Georges is a specific historical landmark, Les Pâtis de Damery is a natural area, and the Véloroute V52 is a route to Dormans. This brings together a range of interests: would you like to learn more about winemaking, choose a cultural attraction, or focus on nature and cycling? These areas of interest can also help guide your plans for a stay in Damery.

Champagne visits with different focuses

At Champagne Daniel Caillez, the tour includes the wine cellar, the cellar riddling rack, the fermentation cellar and the press. Explanations of winemaking are also provided. The visit concludes with a tasting of Champagne made from the three grape varieties Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay. The experience thus combines stops related to production with a tasting at the end. Contact the winery directly for opening details.

Champagne Telmont offers a classic cellar tour with a Champagne tasting, as well as a classic tour that includes a visit to the vineyard. Private workshops on wine and viticulture are also available: they last a few hours or a full day and are not public drop-in activities. In addition, food and wine pairings featuring regional products are offered. For a vineyard visit, it is advisable to confirm the arrangements with the producer before travelling. The options therefore have different focuses: the cellar and tasting, a vineyard visit, a private workshop, or a food and wine pairing.

The story of Champagne Telmont began in 1912, when the house was founded in Damery. Its family character and independence have been preserved over four generations. This offers a different perspective on the house from its individual visitor experiences: the focus here is on its development over generations.

Culture, nature and cycling

The Église Saint-Georges also provides a distinct historical highlight. It has been classified as a Monument historique since 15 December 1911. This date differs from Telmont’s founding year: for the church, the classification is the notable historical reference point, while for the Champagne house, it is its founding in Damery and the character it has retained over four generations.

Les Pâtis de Damery is a natural area distinguished by its biological richness and the rarity of its animal and plant life. For cycling plans, the Véloroute V52 is the specific route: it runs from Damery to Dormans. Les Pâtis represents the nature theme, while the V52 is a named cycling connection. This distinction can help when planning if you view the natural area and cycling route as different travel interests.

When looking for a hotel in Damery, you can first consider whether Champagne visits, the church’s historical significance, the natural area or the cycling route should be your main focus.
