Champagne 75cl
Pinot Noir 80% Chardonnay 15%, Meunier 5%
A word from Cave de France: Drappier Carte d'Or is a "versatile" champagne, ideal for an aperitif, it also goes well with dishes such as white meats, fish or light fruit-based desserts.
Its color is often golden, reminiscent of its name "Carte d'Or", with fine and persistent bubbles.
The nose is expressive, dominated by aromas of stone fruits like peach and apricot, associated with notes of citrus, honey and white flowers. On the palate, it is ample, fruity and slightly spicy, with a good vivacity. It reveals flavors of ripe fruits, baked apples and a pleasantly mineral finish.
A little history: The Drappier house has a fascinating and unique history with General Charles de Gaulle. This link dates back to the 1960s, when De Gaulle, retired from political life, resided in Colombey-les-Deux-Ăglises, near the Drappier house, in the Aube region.
The General used to choose local products for his meals and private events.
Impressed by the quality of this champagne, De Gaulle adopted it for his official and family receptions. Drappier champagne was served during many events he organized at La Boisserie. He seemed to particularly appreciate the style of Drappier champagne, which reflected his taste for simple, authentic and well-made things.
Tribute with the "Charles de Gaulle" cuvée: In homage to this special relationship, the Drappier house created a cuvée that bears his name, the Cuvée Charles de Gaulle. This champagne, like a nod to that era, is made mainly from Pinot Noir, a grape variety that De Gaulle particularly liked. The bottle also sports a sober and elegant label, in the image of the general.
The Drappier house has managed to maintain this historical connection with General de Gaulle, a strong symbol of French heritage, and this still contributes today to the renown and prestige of the brand.
A word from Maison Drappier:Â With a very high proportion of Pinot Noir, it almost tastes like a Blanc de Noirs. A champagne of great aromatic richness, it opens with aromas of stone fruits like white vineyard peach. A spicy note announces a powerful and complex palate. A full-bodied champagne of great complexity with a characteristic touch of quince jelly.
Ideal as an aperitif. At the table with white meat, firm-fleshed fish, or Chaource cheese. Serve at 7°C.
