Pressoria

Centre d’interprétation sensorielle des vins de Champagne, France

Pressoria is a sensory, poetic and engaging visitor experience. Opened in July 2021, it tells the story of champagne and its unique production in this region of France. The experience is housed within the former pressing centre of the Maison Pommery, at the foot of the historic slopes of Aÿ-Champagne. Installations explore the elemental basis of champagne and its terroir: chalk, rain, sunshine, and the deep vine roots. The savoir-faire of champagne-making is focused on, and its combination of innovative and age-old practices. The historic pressoir is brought back to life with a projection-mapped installation, telling the story of the harvest. The apex of the visitor experience is the walk-in, wrap-around-cinema, celebrating ‘bubbles’ as a joyful expression of the essence of champagne.

"Casson Mann rose to the challenge of creating a truly 'wonder full', compelling and inspirational new design befitting the Hunterian's extraordinary collections. It has been a stimulating and rewarding process working with the Casson Mann team. Their creative spirit of enquiry is infectious and their attention to quality and the visitor's experience is second to none."  

Dawn Kemp, Director of Museums and Special Collections at the Royal College of Surgeons of England

“The Casson Mann agency took up a huge challenge by conceiving a resolutely modern and creative scenography, perfectly meeting the requirements of our unique demand. A very successful sensory immersion in the heart of the Champagne region. A big thank you for your creative work and your follow-up from the beginning to the end of the project.”
