About

20 minutes from the centre of Reims, in the heart of the vineyards, the Canard-Duchêne house offers you a surprising visit and invites you to discover part of its 6km of cellars. Canard-Duchêne combines a unique origin, history and style. The house is located since 1868 in Ludes, in the Natural Park of the Montagne de Reims, the nobility of Champagne.
