Founded in 1946 by an original group of around 20 growers, the co-op is now comprised of the holdings of over 70 multi-generational growers. Until Fabian started, the winery resembled many co-ops in Champagne: its growers largely sold fruit to larger houses, the winery processed some grapes and sold off juice, and they produced some conventional wines for longtime customers. On a basic level it was a volume business, providing for its members by returning a modest income each year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eHowever, with Fabian in charge, all of that changed. He convinced the co-op's members to take all 5.5ha of their collective organic holdings and embark on a new journey: he would create a range of wines made entirely without additives or sulfites. This feat of persuasion shouldn't be overlooked: convincing many older growers to go in a completely new (and some would say, risky) direction was a bold decision on his part. The winery still produces a range of conventional wines, but for a cooperative in Champagne, this was a big and unprecedented step towards natural winemaking in a region that has often been highly resistant to change.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"West Palm Wine Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45222181830883,"sku":"","price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/3147\/5171\/files\/IMG_8017.jpg?v=1723152466","url":"https:\/\/www.westpalmwine.com\/products\/nv-chavost-blanc-dassemblage-brut-nature-750ml","provider":"West Palm Wine Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
