Planted by the Gallo-Romans in the early modern era, the vines were some of the first to be farmed by Cistercian monks from Clairvaux Abbey. Fast forward to the 20th century and Maison Drappier’s claim to fame is that it was the supplier of a prestigious neighbour, namely General de Gaulle. Pinot noir accounts for the lion’s share of the vineyards, with 70%, along with equal shares of Chardonnay (15%) and Pinot Meunier. These are complemented by Champagne’s heirloom grape varieties that are Arbanne, Petit Meslier, Blanc Vrai and Fromenteau. Maison Drappier produces very distinctive Champagnes showing extremely consistent quality and spending time in its splendid 12th-century vaulted cellars. This is a top quality Champagne house which bowls us over with this remarkable ‘Grande Sendrée 2010’ label.
