BLONOEL LA ROUGERY
CHAMPAGNE
The vines imported into the Champagne region by the Romans
at the beginning of the III century were cultivated and improv

wine was a source of progress, of activity and of health: it
was therefore under the protection ofthe monasteries that most
of the vineyards rose to prosperity.
