Maybe some of these “grower’s” are just underachievers. I am pretty sure the last time I had a bottle of Dom it was pretty tasty and had a soul.

However, I represent a small Champagne house that was established in 1856. It is still owned and operated by the founding family. They own a small clos on which they produce some of their grapes. The rest of their grapes are produced in vineyards which the family rents. The family totally controls the cultivation of the rented vineyards. Because they do not own the land, this family’s Champagnes are not included in the grower Champagne category, despite the fact that the family controls every step of the process. Unlike the big Champagne houses, this family does not source juice from other farmers. So I think that it is a little unfair to include this family, and other similarly situated producers, in the same category as the huge Champagne houses.

Happy Holidays!
