In the 1960s, I regularly accompanied my father to the library in Epernay, located in the majestic Château Perrier. My first steps on the Avenue de Champagne remain vivid in my memory. For over thirty years, I have had the opportunity to photograph the life of the Champagne houses lining it, the events it hosts, and I continue to explore it tirelessly for my pleasure as an image collector.
