Drappier Clarevallis is the certified organic cuvée of Maison Drappier, a champagne inspired by Clairvaux Abbey, whose Latin name is Clarevallis.
Founded by Saint Bernard in the 12th century, the Cistercian abbey of Clairvaux lies a few kilometres from Urville, where the monks were already planting vines. Drappier honours this heritage with a champagne from organically farmed vines, partly ploughed by horse. Pinot Noir leads the blend, completed by Meunier, Chardonnay and a touch of Blanc Vrai, the old Champagne name for Pinot Blanc. The result is a pure, taut, low-dosage champagne.

Is Clarevallis an organic champagne?

Who is Maison Drappier?
Founded in 1808 in Urville, in the Côte des Bar, Maison Drappier is a family house now run by Michel Drappier and his children. A recognised Pinot Noir specialist, it grows its vines on the Kimmeridgian limestone of the Aube and ages its wines in 12th-century Cistercian cellars.
