Drappier Blanc de Blancs is a white-grape champagne that combines Chardonnay with a touch of Blanc Vrai, the old Champagne name for Pinot Blanc.
Maison Drappier, known for its Pinot Noir, offers here a floral and elegant interpretation of the Côte des Bar. Chardonnay, planted mainly on the Kimmeridgian slopes, brings finesse and tension, while Blanc Vrai adds fruit and roundness. After thirty months of bottle ageing and a low Extra Brut dosage, the result is a balanced, creamy and very fresh champagne.

Frequently asked questions
What is Blanc Vrai?
It is the old Champagne name for Pinot Blanc, one of the grape varieties permitted in Champagne but now very rare. Drappier uses it in a small proportion to bring fruit and roundness to its Blanc de Blancs.
Where is the Côte des Bar?
The Côte des Bar is the Champagne vineyard area of the Aube department, south of Troyes. Its Kimmeridgian limestone soils, close to those of Chablis, are particularly suited to Pinot Noir. It is there, in Urville, that Maison Drappier has been growing its vines since 1808.
