DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The Drappier family has farmed in Champagne since 1808, and most of its 100 hectares sit around the village of Urville in the Cote des Bar, on Kimmeridgian limestone where Pinot Noir does best. This rose is 100% Pinot Noir, made by the saignee method with two days of skin contact, which gives it its deep pink color.
Only the first pressing is used, the wine is left unfiltered with very low sulfites, and it rests 36 months on its lees. It gets zero dosage, so there is no added sugar. Drappier describes strawberry, raspberry and rose petal on the nose, then red fruit, mandarin orange and a touch of white pepper on the palate. Because the fruit is ripe Pinot Noir, it tastes far less severe than most zero-dosage Champagne.
Serve it at about 45F in a white wine glass or tulip rather than a narrow flute. Drappier suggests it as an aperitif or with salmon carpaccio, scallops, sushi or grilled meats.
Bottle size: 750ml
