About this trip

For a few days, simply be a woman again.

The Champagne Life is a hosted Mother's Day weekend in Champagne, France, May 7-10, 2027, for mothers, daughters, and the women who have mothered us. Three nights at Loisium Wine & Spa Hotel among the vineyards, a day at Veuve Clicquot, a spa morning on Mother's Day itself, and a private picnic in the vines with lunch cooked over an open fire.

No kids. No cooking. Nothing to manage. Every transfer, reservation, and detail is handled by Christine and her team, start to finish. Depart the U.S. Thursday, May 6; land in Paris Friday morning and we take it from there.

What's included

Wine Spa Hotel

Three nights at Loisium Wine & Spa Hotel in the heart of Champagne, double occupancy, with buffet breakfast each morning.

The Wine Spa

Full access all weekend: heated outdoor pool, two saunas, steam room, relaxation lounge over the vines, and the spa's champagne bar. Your 30-minute massage is booked and included.

Veuve Clicquot

A tour of the chalk cellars in Reims, a tasting, and lunch at the house.

A Gift From Christine

Something chosen for each of you, waiting in Champagne. You'll know it when you see it.

Hautvillers Tasting

An afternoon in the village where Dom Pérignon perfected his craft, with a tasting at a small family-owned grower.

Picnic in the Vines

A private Mother's Day picnic set for our group alone, gathered around an open fire in the vineyard, with lunch cooked over the flames and Champagne poured where it's grown.

Meals Handled

Every meal from Friday's welcome dinner through Sunday's picnic lunch, wine and gratuities included.

Your Sommelier

A Champagne-based sommelier with over 20 years in the region has shaped this weekend with me, and on Saturday he's ours: guiding the day through the cellars, the tastings, and the vines.

Private Transport

Private transportation all weekend, including Charles de Gaulle airport transfers both ways.

Luggage Protection

Blue Ribbon Bags luggage protection for every guest: if your checked bag is delayed, it's tracked and you're compensated if it isn't returned within the covered window.

Hosted Start to Finish

Christine and her team on the ground from the moment you clear customs until your driver returns you to the airport.

Taxes & Gratuities

All taxes, plus gratuities for the hotel, our drivers, and every included meal.

What's not included

International Airfare

You book your flights to Paris; I'm happy to book them for you as well, just ask.

Travel Insurance

Strongly recommended. Right after your deposit, you'll be offered the option to quote and buy coverage online. For the fullest protection, purchase within 15 days of your deposit.

Sunday Dinner

The evening is yours after the picnic; the hotel restaurant and spa bar are steps away.

Personal Purchases

Boutique finds, extra bottles, spa add-ons, and any tip you'd like to leave your massage therapist.

Arrival in Champagne

Land at Charles de Gaulle and we take it from there: private transfer into Champagne, an afternoon at the Wine Spa, and a welcome dinner at the hotel. Sleep off the flight by the pool; the first toast comes at dinner.

Day 2

The Great Houses

Veuve Clicquot's chalk cellars, a tasting, and lunch at the house. Then into the hills to Hautvillers, where Dom Pérignon perfected his craft, for a tasting with a small family-owned grower. Dinner at a century-old Reims brasserie.

Day 3

Mother's Day

Spa morning with your massage, then a private picnic set for our group alone around an open fire in the vineyard, lunch cooked over the flames and Champagne poured where it's grown. Nowhere to be, nothing to decide.
