re: 1 week to chill: Bordeaux vs Champagne?

A whole week would be a long time in Champagne country. We went to Reims on the high speed train as a day trip from Paris. The cathedral there is one of the most beautiful and historic churches you will see anywhere, and we visited several Champagne houses, including Veuve Cliquot and Pommery which are right next to each other. We would like to go to Epernay next time, but I think I would be Champagned out after a week. If you are going to stay for a week in wine country I would rather immerse myself in the top notch Bordeaux.
