GROWER CHAMPAGNE!
55 Cuvees now at Pix!

Did you know Pix offers a super extensive list of Grower Champagne? One of (if not the) largest selection in the nation! Grower Champagne, produced with grapes grown on premises and not purchased, allows for more control over the final product and usually results in wines full of character and a good expression of terrior.

Not only is our list the largest but it also includes a exclusive section for Special Club Champagne! Champagne’s Special Club is a group of Grower-Producers who all have the common goal of promoting the expression of terroir. The members serve as a jury of their peers, voting for the best Champagne of certain vintages, which is put into a stout bottle only to be used by those that make the mark. These are truly sparklers of exceptional quality and value!

But wait…there’s more! We are also offering 2 rotating glass pours of grower Champagne at each of our locations. (Follow up on twitter to see what’s currently available.)
