The Drappier Carte d’Or expresses all the aromas of the noble grape variety Pinot Noir. This in fact constitutes at least 80% of the blend. A red grape producing white juice, it is sought after not only for its structure but also for its very characteristic fine notes of red fruits.

Carte d'Or
THE VERY EXPRESSION OF THE DRAPPIER STYLE
Carte d’Or expresses the identity of our house directed by the same family since 1808. In Urville, the heart of the Côte des Bar, we cultivate all that is natural and authentic in keeping with a great wine of Champagne.
TASTING
With a very high proportion of Pinot Noir one is savouring what is nearly a Blanc de Noirs. A Champagne of great aromatic richness. The taste begins with stone fruits such as white vineyard peaches. A spicy note emerges in a powerful and complex mouthfeel. A vinous Champagne of grand complexity, with a characteristic touch of quince jelly.
