Drappier Carte d'Or Demi-Sec is the demi-sec version of the Carte d'Or, the signature cuvée of Maison Drappier, a Pinot Noir-led champagne born on the slopes of Urville, in the Côte des Bar.
Here you find the base of the Carte d'Or, a blend in which Pinot Noir largely dominates, completed by Chardonnay and a touch of Meunier. A more generous dosage gives it a gourmand roundness, while the liveliness of the Kimmeridgian terroir keeps it fresh and easy to drink. A bottle designed for the end of the meal, fruit desserts and anyone who likes a softer champagne.
