Drappier
Drappier 'Carte d'Or' Brut NV, Champagne, France
£25
Heavily dominated by Pinot Noir, this champagne offers a rich aroma of stoned fruits, most notably peach. Balanced by spice, which is the characteristic flavour upon the palate. A very firm champagne that balances complexity with power. Very little sulphur, making this an easy drinking experience. Serve at 7OC for finest taste.

ABOUT THE VINEYARD
Located in the Côte des Bar, Drappier has been a family-owned winery since the 19th Century. Only first-pressed gapes are used, with minimal mechanical pressure and just 5% sulphur. Drappier was the favourite winery of General Charles de Gaulle, earning a place in history carried forward to today.
