The Champagne Slopes, Houses and Cellars being included on UNnesco’s World Heritage List in the Living Cultural Landscapes Category further cemented the Exceptional Universal Value of the Champagne landscape.

Reims Cathedral, which incidentally has held Unesco World Heritage status since 1991, was this year’s venue for the St Vincent Festival, the day when the patron saint of winegrowers is commemorated. The festival was attended by Irina Bokova, the Director-General of UNESCO.
