"You should drink grower Champagne if you've forgotten that Champagne is WINE."
You should drink "farmer-fizz" if you'd rather buy Champagne from a farmer than a factory.
You should drink it if you'd rather have a wine expressive of vineyard, and the grower's own connection to vineyard.
You should drink grower Champagne if the individually distinctive flavors of terroir-driven wines matter more than the lowest-common denominator pap served up by the mega conglomerates in the "luxury goods" business.
You should drink it because it's honest REAL wine grown and made by a vintner—by a FAMILY just like yours—by a "him," not by an "it."
You should drink it because its price is honestly based on what it costs to produce, not manipulated to account for massive PR and ad budgets." - Terry Thiese
We are proud to support Grower Champagne, and have one of our favorites on sale this week!
Pierre Gimmonet 1er Cru Blanc de Blancs
This 100% Chardonnay is amazingly bright and explosive, like biting into a Granny Smith apple! Crisp, refreshing and alive...one of the most delicious and refreshing Champagnes I have ever tasted. Once paired with a seared scallop on a bed of apple slaw...perfect! One of the best Champagne's you will ever find at this price.
(Keep your eyes open for this year's Grower Champagne dinner...five courses, all paired with Champagne!)
