Champagne Pommery: Beautiful Wineries Around the World

Landscape view of Champagne Pommery winery in France, with Elizabethan neo-Gothic castle-like buildings arranged in an H-shape
Contrary to tradition in Champagne, the Pommery estate was designed in an open, H-shaped plan; following the popular style of the time in Reims, its blue stone and red brick facades were influenced by Elizabethan neo-Gothic architecture. (Fred Laures)

Maison Pommery is one of Champagne's leading names, with a grand estate to match the prestige of its sparkling wines. While the castle-like facades evoke fairy tales, the intrigue of Pommery is in what lies beneath the surface: Gallo-Roman chalk quarries transformed into 11 miles of caves for aging barrels of bubbly. Read more about the historic estate and see breathtaking images of this top destination for wine lovers.
