Drappier Brut Nature Sans Ajout de Soufre Magnum

Drappier Brut Nature Sans Ajout de Soufre Magnum is the most natural cuvée of Maison Drappier, zero dosage and zero added sulphur, presented here in magnum.

The fruit of many years of work to reduce sulphites, this 100% Pinot Noir champagne receives no sulphur at any stage. Vinified by gravity, without filtration, then aged twenty-four months in bottle, it keeps a remarkable roundness despite the absence of dosage, thanks to the ripeness of the grapes. The magnum holds 1.5 litres, the equivalent of two bottles. It is the format connoisseurs prefer: as the volume of air under the cork is proportionally smaller, the wine evolves more slowly and more harmoniously, and gains finesse over time.

Frequently asked questions

Why choose a magnum?

A magnum ages more slowly than a 75 cl bottle, because the volume of air in contact with the wine is proportionally smaller. The champagne keeps its freshness longer and gains finesse, and the format is ideal for a table of eight to ten people.

Why a champagne with no added sulphur?

Sulphur protects wine from oxidation but can mask part of the fruit. Without it, the champagne expresses the grape more directly, provided you start with perfectly healthy grapes and take care with storage.
