Today i’m going to review the Champagne Drappier, Carte d’Or. Drappier champagnes have a long and impressive regal history which dates back to the early 1800’s.The cellars that are used to store the Champagne Drappier are some of the oldest and biggest in Europe. You will feel that history and experience contributes a huge amount to their champagnes.
The Champange Drappier Cart d’Or is from the Aub region which is the southern most region of Champagne demarcation.
Their wines are distinguished by their unique fruit flavour and high level of purity. The taste of stone fruits dominate the flavor along with a touch of spice. Their wines have a great balance and a very satisfying overall taste. Drappier champagnes are so well refined that they have the lowest amount of Sulphur in any wine. The wine is a big full bodied wine and has a big kick. When you compare it to other more famous champagnes, it matches up well for the price.
The wine has an interesting mix of grapes with a 75% pinot Noir, 15% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Meunier mix. This high Pinot Noir content gives it a real feel of substance.
The wine is definitely worth a try and you won’t be disappointed. Check out the more champagne offers at BWS. Shop at BWS with a BWS coupon here.
