Since 1808, when François, an ancestor of Michel Drappier, settled in Urville the estate has been in the hands of our family. Today, patriarch André Drappier is still present every day, while the eighth generation, represented by Charline, Hugo and Antoine, have joined the house which remains proud of its independence. The Drappier House is part of an overall zero carbon footprint approach since 2017, through various actions: photovoltaic cellar, electric vehicles, sustainable packaging.
Champagne Drappier Coteaux Champenois Permission Rouge de Pinot Noir 2020
HK$ 650
Story: In 2020, the Egrillers plot produces intense, ripe, healthy Pinot Noir; the promise of a Coteaux-Champenois that will keep well, without the help of sulphites. After a 14-day maceration, the 100% Pinot Noir tinted wine is transferred to its oak barrel from the Orient Forest (local wood), where it remains for two years. In 2024, Hugo and Michel Drappier, surprised by the wine’s good behaviour, released this red with taut but delicate tannins. Permitted to leave, it is up to everyone to decide what to do with this former prisoner: leave him on ‘parole’ in his bottle for a few years or enjoy his current freshness and vivacity.
Tasting Notes: A deep red hue. In the mouth, magnificent notes of blackcurrant and red fruits. It has structure, roundness and power, and shows great promise for the future. Its tannins are tight but refined, showing great ageing potential. It will be perfect with veal with olives.
