This Champagne characterises the identity of house Drappier which has been run by the same family since 1808. A fine Champagne made from 85% Pinot Noir giving the wine plenty of power and intensity but also a broadness and softness of flavour. Drappier is the wine we serve on arrival at DVino Wines' birthday tasting every September.
