This Guide is dedicated to all wine amateurs that go to Champagne for touring and do not want to have bad surprises when buying wines (that is to say: very good wines at right prices). Therefore many famous Champagne producers are not mentioned in this paper. The wines registered in this Guide have been tasted by experts during several "Salon des Vins des Vignerons Indépendants" (Paris, Lion, Nice, Lille etc.); some wines have been anonymously evaluated in businesses themselves, whereas others have been officially judged after selection in wineries. Evaluation is a result from team work, where a team tasted wines for about six months. The "Tasting Commission" is made up of winetasters, chefs and amateurs.
