Dimanche 22 Janvier : Saint Vincent.

The procession sticks escorted by Marie-Noëlle.

Vincent is the Patron Saint of wine growers and producers, he looks after the vines and, preserves the vineyard and take care of the cuvées.

In Champagne, the tradition is still very strong, there are number of churches dedicated to Saint-Vincent, or relics, statues and procession sticks.

His feast day, January 22, life stops: no winemaker is to go in his vineyard and all, women, children, friends, participate in the day.

The first verse of the prayer says:

"St. Vincent, patron of wine growers
Get us the abundance of crops, the quality of wine, a large and loyal clientele and prosperity in our business!"



Each year, the stick of Saint Vincent is entrusted to a winemaker and this is Marie-Noëlle who had the honour to receive it. The winegrowers of the village will have the mission to verify whether the conditions of accommodation are good, and shall certainly take advantage of the opportunity to savour few glasses of champagne…

Saint Vincent will take care of our cuvées and guests
