About the event
A walk-around Champagne tasting
Los Angeles Grand Tasting is the grand tasting event within La Fête du Champagne 2025 Los Angeles. The format is a walk-around tasting built around wines from participating producers, rather than a seated seminar or single-producer presentation.
The tasting features over 100 different Champagnes presented directly by participating producers, with small bites served alongside the pours. The core draw is breadth: attendees can encounter wines from all participating producers in one grand tasting format.
Founders and production
La Fête du Champagne was founded by Peter Liem and Daniel Johnnes. Liem is identified with the event as a Champagne expert, while Johnnes is identified as a sommelier. The Los Angeles 2025 edition is produced by Gracie Events LLC.
Those founder roles matter here because the event is framed around Champagne producers and direct producer presentation. The available program information names the producers collectively, not as an individual roster, so the supported description stays focused on the participating-producer format.
Santa Monica setting and admission path
The tasting is in Santa Monica at Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows, listed as a hotel and event lawn, with the address at 101 Wilshire Blvd. The location places the event in Santa Monica within the Los Angeles program.
Ticketing is hosted through Eventbrite, and the promo code ENPRIMEURCLUB is associated with En Primeur Club packages. Standard admission is listed as plus tax, but ticket handling belongs to the event’s ticketing page rather than this editorial copy.
