Description

Champagne Signature Blanc de Blancs Drappier

Blanc de Blancs 95% Chardonnay, 5% Blanc Vrai (Pinot Bianco)

Blanc de Blancs in a nutshell…

Light and airy Creamy Nature Very low sulphur content Finesse

The Drappier vineyard covers 100 hectares and constitutes the House’s essential trump card.
Since 1808 our family has used its skill to select parcels of land which are particularly well exposed and extremely rich in limestone. For the most part they are located around Urville, where Pinot Noir, the predominant grape variety, finds its loveliest expression and allows the production of very elegant, aromatic wines.

Vinification of the Blanc de Blancs cuvée
Only the juices from first pressing – the cuvées – are used Mechanical low-pressure presses Use of gravity to avoid pumping, thus avoiding oxidisation Minimal use of sulphur

Natural settling

Alcoholic fermentation for roughly 2 weeks at low temperature
Then total and natural malolactic fermentation
No filtering

Assemblage:

100% of the wines are made in vats in order to preserve as much freshness as possible
After bottling, the cuvée is aged for 2 to 3 years sur lattes (on laths).
Dosage: 8 g/l

Tasting notes

The nose brings to mind white peach and pear but also more floral notes such as peony. On the palate a mineral Champagne, lightly biscuity, creamy, supple, seductive.

Serving suggestions

Ideal as an aperitif. At the table it goes superbly with white meats, chilled smoked salmon with citrus fruits, tagliatelle with scallops.
Serve at 7°C.

The vine, at the heart of the Drappier identity

Today, the family vineyard spans over 62 hectares, without including those under contractual arrangements with other growers.
The Drappier vineyard, mainly located in the village of Urville, maintains the strong identity of the Bar-sur-Aube arrondissement, characterised by the influence of Pinot Noir. This grape prevails here, representing 70% of the estate, supplemented by Pinot Meunier at 15%, Chardonnay at 9%, and old grape varieties at 6%.
