{"title":"Champagne Drappier","description":"\u003ch2\u003eChampagne Drappier – Sparkling Luxury\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChampagne Drappier\u003c\/strong\u003e is a family-run Champagne house in France with a long tradition. Since 1808, the family has lived in Urville, a small village in the Champagne region of Côte de Bar. The cloth merchant Rémy Drappier from Reims was the first to bring sparkling luxury to the Drappier house, buying 55 hectares of vineyards in prime locations such as Belle Haie, Val Demoiselle or Sendrée, as well as historic limestone cellars, the oldest of which was built in 1152, and subsequently dedicated himself with great passion to sparkling wine production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, the Drappier family, in its eighth generation, cultivates over 100 hectares of vineyards in the south of Champagne, predominantly consisting of chalky soils interspersed with Kimmeridgian marl. This special soil formation within the Paris Basin was primarily planted with Pinot Noir, the grape variety that gives Drappier Champagne Côte d’or, the flagship of the house with its distinctive yellow label, its unique minerality and coppery appearance. The favorite champagne of Charles de Gaulle, which was the house champagne at the Elysée Palace during his term in office, is not only popular in France; Luciano Pavarotti had this sparkling wine served at his wedding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChampagne Drappier – Winemakers for Eight Generations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOften, the entrepreneurial decisions of the Drappier family have set trends for the entire region. For example, Michel's grandfather, George Collot, planted Pinot Noir instead of Chardonnay after the great frost in 1957, for which he was ridiculed and nicknamed Papa Pinot. Today, three-quarters of the Côte de Bar region is planted with Pinot Noir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMichel Drappier, who has managed the Champagne house Drappier since 1979, adopted a natural approach to Champagne production early on and significantly reduced the addition of sulfur, thereby prompting a rethinking among many Champagne winemakers. The Champagnes produced in this way have more natural colors, a rich, sometimes almost coppery gold, and develop their aromas much better than with a higher sulfur addition. Furthermore, the low sulfur allows for a particularly slow bottle fermentation at low temperatures in historic limestone cellars, which leads to an extremely fine and subtle effervescence. For the Drappier Brut Nature, Michel refrains from adding any dosage, allowing for an unadorned, terroir-driven, bone-dry Champagne that is highly popular among Champagne connoisseurs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough most of the vineyard area is planted with classic Champagne grape varieties such as Pinot Noir (70%), Chardonnay and Meunier, Michel values providing space for the almost forgotten, but still approved for Champagne production, grape varieties such as Arbane, Petit Meslier and Blanc Vrai, and created the Champagne Quattuor from them together with Chardonnay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven if we only procure large bottles beyond Magnum for customers upon request, this special feature of Champagne Drappier is definitely worth mentioning, because Drappier is still the only Champagne producer that carries out the second fermentation including riddling and disgorgement in the individual large bottles, and not, as is otherwise common, transfers several bottles of finished Champagne into a Magnum (1.5l), Jeroboam (3l) or Balthazar (12l). Anyone who has had the pleasure of enjoying a glass of aged Champagne from a Melchisédec (30l) bottle knows why. Champagne Drappier is sparkling pleasure for life's special moments.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"drappier-champagner-kuehler","title":"Champagne Cooler","description":"\u003ch2\u003eDrappier Champagne Cooler – Yellow\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have the perfect \u003cstrong\u003eDrappier Champagne Cooler\u003c\/strong\u003e for anyone who wants to stylishly chill their Drappier Champagne Carte d'Or Brut.

Once at the winery, the Pinot Noir grapes remain on the skins for two days so that the red color can be released from the skins, before they are gently pressed using mechanical low-pressure presses. Maceration is a special feature of the Drappier Champagne house, as otherwise, a white-pressed Pinot Noir base wine is usually blended with red wine to produce a rosé Champagne (Rosé Assemblage). Here, however, a rosé base wine is already produced from Pinot Noir, which then becomes Champagne in the second fermentation. Naturally, only the cuvée, the first part of the pressing, is used for the Rosé de Saignée Champagne. The grape must is treated with great care to avoid oxidation, and processed further without pumps, using only gravity. The base wine is fermented with natural yeasts and aged in stainless steel tanks, 5% mature for one year in large oak barrels from French oak. The cuvée has naturally undergone malolactic fermentation, meaning the malic acid in the wine has turned into the milder lactic acid, which provides a special mouthfeel with a slightly creamy structure and for further complexity of the Champagne Rosé de Saignée.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo carry out one of the most important steps in producing good Champagne: the blending, i.e. bringing together the different base wines for the second fermentation, three generations come together at Drappier and contribute their taste and lived experience: Grandfather André Nicolas, father Michel, as well as grandchildren Charline, who manages sales and marketing, Hugo, who now works as cellar master at Drappier, and Antoine, who cultivates the vineyards again with the help of horses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNaturally, Drappier Rosé Champagne undergoes the second fermentation in traditional bottle fermentation: according to the Méthode champenoise.

The base wine is fermented with natural yeasts and aged in stainless steel tanks; 5% ages for one year in French oak barrels. To make the champagne more complex, 40% of this cuvée comes from reserve wines of older vintages. A special technique that has a significant tradition in Champagne. The cuvée has naturally undergone malolactic fermentation, meaning the malic acid in the wine has been converted into the milder lactic acid, which provides a special mouthfeel with a slightly creamy texture and further complexity to the Drappier Carte d'Or Brut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo carry out one of the most important steps in producing good champagne: the blending, i.e., bringing together the different base wines for the second fermentation, three generations come together at Drappier and contribute their taste and lived experience: grandfather André Nicolas, father Michel, as well as grandchildren Charline, who leads sales and marketing, Hugo, who today works as cellar master at Drappier, and Antoine, who cultivates the vineyards again with the help of horses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course, Drappier Champagne undergoes the second fermentation in traditional bottle fermentation: according to the Méthode champenoise. After three years of bottle aging, Drappier Champagne Carte d'Or is released to the market. The champagne is unfiltered and uncolored. And Michel Drappier is known for using as little sulfur (less than 30mg\/l) as necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCarte d'Or – a sparkling wine and its values\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCôte des Bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80% Pinot Noir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15% Chardonnay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5% Pinot Meunier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDosage 5.5g\/l\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12% vol.
