It's time for bubbles and fries! We're sharing a dozen bottles of Grower Champagne via Skurnik with you along with waffle fries from Ray Ray's Hog Pit. Two-thirds of the Champagne sold in the U.S. market are from one company, LVMH, under their Veuve Clicquot, Moet & Chandon, and other brands, mass-producing more than 10 million bottles per year just for the U.S. While I definitely don't mind drinking the wines, you're paying a premium for marketing and padding Bernard Arnault's pockets as one of the wealthiest people in the world. And there's a tipping point at this volume when quantity impacts quality. It's like JT's Pizza versus Pizza Hut.
Then there's Grower Champagne. Smaller producers who grow their own fruit and make higher quality wines from top vineyard sites. You can get Premium and Grand Cru bottlings for a price similar to the big brands. We're going to share the wines of 12 different producers from the three leading subregions of Champagne. We'll have Brittany and Mike from Skurnik on hand to share these wines and more.
Please read all of the following details before signing up...
We have a limited number of spots to attend this tasting and you’ll have the opportunity to purchase favorites. Some wines can be limited and the lineup is subject to change based on availability but we'd substitute with similar wines. The pouring will begin at 6pm and end at 8pm, tasting at your own pace, so give yourself enough time to taste through the wines. We’re offering this tasting for $60 per person to taste the 12 wines and enjoy some waffle fries from Ray Ray's Hog Pit. This is priced down to the pour and the number of bottles we'll open so no repeat pours. After the tasting, you can grab a drink in the Dive Baar. If you’re also wanting dinner while you’re here, Ray Ray’s Hog Pit will be open and available or you can order pizza from JT’s Pizza & Pub. No other outside food allowed. You can cancel up to 48 hours before the tasting for a full refund by contacting Donnie at [email protected].
