Champagne Drappier Brut Nature Zero Dosage NV – Tasting Notes
Crafted exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes and matured for 36 months on the lees, the Champagne Drappier Brut Nature Zero Dosage NV is an outstanding expression of a blanc de noirs Champagne with no added sugar (zero dosage). This bone-dry, elegant Champagne shimmers with golden hues and delicate copper highlights, reflecting its rich and complex character.
Nose
Aromatic and vivid, it opens with the fresh intensity of crushed black grapes, complemented by bright red berries, white orchard fruits and zesty citrus nuances. Subtle floral and mineral notes emerge, enhancing its aromatic finesse.
Palate
On the palate, this Champagne is both structured and precise. Flavours of vineyard peach, ripe pear and juicy white peach unfold, alongside refreshing lemon zest and chalky mineral undertones. A gentle hint of spice and soft herbal notes lend complexity and remarkable length to the finish.

Winery | Today, Drappier owns fifty-five hectares of vineyard around Urville, with another fifty hectares under contract in the Cote des Bar, Montagne de Reims, and Cote des Blancs. Although Pinot Noir accounts for most wine produced, the style is not heavy. A vivacity and lightness of touch demonstrate great skill since these champagnes have plenty of concentration and substance. And, again, despite the Pinot dominance, the house has a great feel for Blanc de Blancs, be it 100% Chardonnay or the rare blend of all four, mostly obscure, white grapes permitted in Champagne. For one of Champagne’s most forward-thinking producers, Drappier has no shortage of historical roots. An eighth-generation family business, the house was founded in 1808 and occupies magnificent twelfth-century cellars built by Cistercian monks. Indeed, members of this monastic order travelled up from Burgundy to the Aube region nearly a millennium ago and planted the early ancestor of Pinot Noir. In the early twentieth century, however, Pinot Noir had fallen out of favour in the region. Drappier could sense its potential and was the first to replant it in the 1930s, earning ridicule from neighbours until the quality advantages became clear. Other innovations have followed: rosé in a clear bottle was introduced in 1968; extremely low levels of sulphur are used, and there is even a no-added-sulphur cuvée made; the liqueur d’expédition is matured for over fifteen |
