Champagne Bisous From Drappier Brut Nature
A Champagne Bisous to all for a sparkling 2025 with Champagne Drappier Brut Nature.
Champagne Drappier boasts a rich history dating back to 1808 when François Drappier began cultivating vines in Urville, a village nestled in the heart of the Côte des Bar region of Champagne. The Drappier family has remained deeply involved in the estate for generations, with Michel Drappier currently overseeing the domaine. Drappier played a pioneering role in the region by championing the use of Pinot Noir, a grape variety that thrives in their terroir and contributes significantly to the house's distinctive style. The estate is dedicated to sustainable viticulture and minimal interventionist winemaking, allowing the unique character of the terroir and the Pinot Noir grape to shine through in their Champagnes. Drappier's commitment to quality and their rich family heritage have established them as one of the most respected and admired Champagne houses in the region. Their Brut Nature Pinot Noir is a distinguished Blanc de Noirs, meticulously crafted from 100% Pinot Noir grapes with three years sur lie. With zero dosage this champagne reflects the purity of the terroir.
This Champagne Drappier Brut Nature Pinot Noir is a truly festive sparkler. A luminous pale gold hue, reminiscent of shimmering holiday lights, sets the stage. The nose unfolds with captivating aromas of ripe red berries – juicy cherries, raspberries, and a hint of blood orange zest – interwoven with delicate floral notes of rose petal and honeysuckle, evoking the spirit of a festive gathering. On the palate, the vibrant mousseux dances across the tongue, showcasing the Pinot Noir character with a generous core of red fruit flavors and a touch of spice. A refreshing acidity provides a bracing counterpoint, while the finish lingers with a subtle mineral note and a suggestion of almond. This Champagne is the perfect celebratory sparkler, whether enjoyed during a holiday feast, a New Year's Eve toast, or any occasion that calls for a touch of sparkle.
Turning the page to a new year filled with adventures and happiness.
