We stayed in Mutigny, which is quite near Épernay.  I honestly can't remember most of the vineyards, but when my shipment arrives I'll share the labels.  I was traveling with someone much more knowledgeable than me and we went to smaller producers that grew their own grapes and gave a more personal tour & tasting.  My favorite was Stephane, who spent most of the time lecturing us on what was wrong with Napa, and Americans in general lol.

The one large house we went to was Ruinart, where we got to go down into the cellar.  That was quite an experience.
