The best fashion and gift stores Champagne-Ardenne

In the middle of the hotel you can find this tiny pedestrian street in front of Saint-Alpine church. A model, a table and an ensign draw the eye to this beautiful house, which is set up in a boutique. We move from one piece to the other, caressing from the eye or hand to furniture from a variety of times, from sometimes narrow aisles. Rustic cabinets, secretaries in good condition, show their patina. Old objects complement the framework: crockery of yesteryear, chandeliers, lamps, crystal or bronze, gramophone with or without pavilion, military or pretty trinkets… Patrick Pierrejean buys and sells.

Between vineyards and forest, let yourself be transported to the heart of Bouzy, a magnificent village classified as a Grand Cru, to discover the history of these Champagne creators for 5 generations. 1873 marks the beginning of Barnaut champagne, which was created thanks to the union of Edmond Barnaut, a pressure broker and wine grower, and Apolline Godmé-Barancourt, descendant of a very old wine grower family from Bouzy.
