Gentle hills, vast forests surrounding it and fields of wheat or barley bending in the wind, the valley of the village of Sommeval has something welcoming and peaceful. At the edge of the forest, the view is remarkable.

This forest village is located in the heart of the Othe forest massif. Very close to the Trojan city, it is a bit like its green lung. The country of Othe, as it is also nicknamed, is a chalky block which stretches over 60 kilometers long. Cider is his specialty. Whether sweet or fruity, amateurs will appreciate a good bowl. Champagne does not have the prerogative of bubbles.
