They are located in the small village of Urville in the Côte des Bar where Pinot Noir, the predominant grape variety, finds its purest expression and allows the production of very elegant, aromatic wines. With an annual production of some 1.5 million bottles, they are considerably larger than a small grower, but not quite of the size of the Grande Marques in and around Reims and Epernay. Drappier is one of the foremost producers in the region which is highly respected amongst its peers like Cédric Bouchard, Marie-Courtin, Vouette et Sorbée, and Jacques Lassaigne. They own 55 hectares of vineyards and use another 50 hectares under contract with other growers. A an interesting historical fact is that Charles de Gaulle (the Former Minister of the Armed Forces in France) was very fond of their Champagne and they named a cuvée after him. Amongst their range of excellent cuvée’s, they have a range including a ‘Sulfur free’, ‘Zero dosage’, and a ‘blanc de blancs’ that contains a forgotten grape called Blanc Vrai.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFood suggestion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ePerfect with grilled aniseed and lemon sea bass, risotto, sole à la plancha and traditional blanquette of veal.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2018-11-14T22:25:21+11:00","created_at":"2018-11-14T22:02:45+11:00","vendor":"Drappier","type":"Vintage","tags":["$100-200","chardonnay-dominant","Exclusive","Kyri's Selection","New Arrival","Organic","Region: Urville","Taste: Almond","Taste: Chardonnay Dominant","Taste: Ginger","Taste: Malolactic Fermention","Taste: No Filtration","Taste: Organic","Taste: Stainless Steel Fermentation","Taste: Stone Fruit","Year: 2012"],"price":12499,"price_min":12499,"price_max":12499,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":13832146747501,"title":"Single","option1":"Single","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"DRAPPIER_2012","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":4269532217453,"product_id":1488102850669,"position":1,"created_at":"2018-11-14T22:12:27+11:00","updated_at":"2020-04-24T21:23:42+10:00","alt":"CHAMPAGNE_DRAPPIER_MILLESIME_EXCEPTION_2012_EMPEROR_CHAMPAGNE","width":800,"height":800,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/CHAMPAGNE_DRAPPIER_MILLESIME_EXCEPTION_2012_EMPEROR_CHAMPAGNEjpg.jpg?v=1587727422","variant_ids":[13832146747501]},"available":true,"name":"Drappier Millésime Exception 2012 - Single","public_title":"Single","options":["Single"],"price":12499,"weight":1000,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":24,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","barcode":"","featured_media":{"alt":"CHAMPAGNE_DRAPPIER_MILLESIME_EXCEPTION_2012_EMPEROR_CHAMPAGNE","id":1264785391725,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":800,"width":800,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/CHAMPAGNE_DRAPPIER_MILLESIME_EXCEPTION_2012_EMPEROR_CHAMPAGNEjpg.jpg?v=1569143042"}}}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/CHAMPAGNE_DRAPPIER_MILLESIME_EXCEPTION_2012_EMPEROR_CHAMPAGNEjpg.jpg?v=1587727422"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/CHAMPAGNE_DRAPPIER_MILLESIME_EXCEPTION_2012_EMPEROR_CHAMPAGNEjpg.jpg?v=1587727422","options":["Please select"],"media":[{"alt":"CHAMPAGNE_DRAPPIER_MILLESIME_EXCEPTION_2012_EMPEROR_CHAMPAGNE","id":1264785391725,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":800,"width":800,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/CHAMPAGNE_DRAPPIER_MILLESIME_EXCEPTION_2012_EMPEROR_CHAMPAGNEjpg.jpg?v=1569143042"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":800,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1922\/1617\/products\/CHAMPAGNE_DRAPPIER_MILLESIME_EXCEPTION_2012_EMPEROR_CHAMPAGNEjpg.jpg?v=1569143042","width":800}],"content":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- One of the oldest and most prominent houses in Champagne with little to no sulphur across the range \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Coming from the pristine \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2012\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e harvest.

They are located in the small village of Urville in the Côte des Bar where Pinot Noir, the predominant grape variety, finds its purest expression and allows the production of very elegant, aromatic wines. With an annual production of some 1.5 million bottles, they are considerably larger than a small grower, but not quite of the size of the Grande Marques in and around Reims and Epernay. Drappier is one of the foremost producers in the region which is highly respected amongst its peers like Cédric Bouchard, Marie-Courtin, Vouette et Sorbée, and Jacques Lassaigne. They own 55 hectares of vineyards and use another 50 hectares under contract with other growers. A an interesting historical fact is that Charles de Gaulle (the Former Minister of the Armed Forces in France) was very fond of their Champagne and they named a cuvée after him. Amongst their range of excellent cuvée’s, they have a range including a ‘Sulfur free’, ‘Zero dosage’, and a ‘blanc de blancs’ that contains a forgotten grape called Blanc Vrai.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFood suggestion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ePerfect with grilled aniseed and lemon sea bass, risotto, sole à la plancha and traditional blanquette of veal.\u003c\/p\u003e"}

The main characteristics of De Sousa Champagne are; *'Vieilles Vignes' or old-vine viticulture. *The vineyards are ploughed traditionally by horse and some of the oldest vines go back to the early 1930's. *Full malolactic fermentation. *Extended lees ageing. *Ageing of reserve wines in barrel. Ericks' winemaking philosophy supports later ripening which allows the vines to benefit from the mineral-rich soils.

Father and Vigneron Erick De Sousa has a Portuguese background and practices Biodynamic viticulture. The family runs just over 9 hectares, most of which in Avize but also in the Montagne de Reims and Ambonnay, also a small vineyard in the Marne Valley - Mardeuil.

They are located in the small village of Urville in the Côte des Bar where Pinot Noir, the predominant grape variety, finds its purest expression and allows the production of very elegant, aromatic wines. With an annual production of some 1.5 million bottles, they are considerably larger than a small grower, but not quite of the size of the Grande Marques in and around Reims and Epernay. Drappier is one of the foremost producers in the region which is highly respected amongst its peers like Cédric Bouchard, Marie-Courtin, Vouette et Sorbée, and Jacques Lassaigne. They own 55 hectares of vineyards and use another 50 hectares under contract with other growers.

They are located in the small village of Urville in the Côte des Bar where Pinot Noir, the predominant grape variety, finds its purest expression and allows the production of very elegant, aromatic wines. With an annual production of some 1.5 million bottles, they are considerably larger than a small grower, but not quite of the size of the Grande Marques in and around Reims and Epernay. Drappier is one of the foremost producers in the region which is highly respected amongst its peers like Cédric Bouchard, Marie-Courtin, Vouette et Sorbée, and Jacques Lassaigne. They own 55 hectares of vineyards and use another 50 hectares under contract with other growers. A an interesting historical fact is that Charles de Gaulle (the Former Minister of the Armed Forces in France) was very fond of their Champagne and they named a cuvée after him. Amongst their range of excellent cuvée’s, they have a range including a ‘Sulfur free’, ‘Zero dosage’, and a ‘blanc de blancs’ that contains a forgotten grape called Blanc Vrai.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFood suggestion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp field=\"recipename\" itemprop=\"name\"\u003eFriends and canapes.

The family runs just over 9 hectares, most of which in Avize but also in the Montagne de Reims and Ambonnay, also a small vineyard in the Marne Valley - Mardeuil. The main characteristics of De Sousa Champagne are; *'Vieilles Vignes' or old-vine viticulture. *The vineyards are ploughed traditionally by horse and some of the oldest vines go back to the early 1930's. *Full malolactic fermentation. *Extended lees ageing. *Ageing of reserve wines in barrel. Ericks' winemaking philosophy supports later ripening which allows the vines to benefit from the mineral-rich soils.

The main characteristics of De Sousa Champagne are; *'Vieilles Vignes' or old-vine viticulture. *The vineyards are ploughed traditionally by horse and some of the oldest vines go back to the early 1930's. *Full malolactic fermentation. *Extended lees ageing. *Ageing of reserve wines in barrel. Ericks' winemaking philosophy supports later ripening which allows the vines to benefit from the mineral-rich soils.

They are located in the small village of Urville in the Côte des Bar where Pinot Noir, the predominant grape variety, finds its purest expression and allows the production of very elegant, aromatic wines. With an annual production of some 1.5 million bottles, they are considerably larger than a small grower, but not quite of the size of the Grande Marques in and around Reims and Epernay. Drappier is one of the foremost producers in the region which is highly respected amongst its peers like Cédric Bouchard, Marie-Courtin, Vouette et Sorbée, and Jacques Lassaigne. They own 55 hectares of vineyards and use another 50 hectares under contract with other growers. A an interesting historical fact is that Charles de Gaulle (the Former Minister of the Armed Forces in France) was very fond of their Champagne and they named a cuvée after him. Amongst their range of excellent cuvée’s, they have a range including a ‘Sulfur free’, ‘Zero dosage’, and a ‘blanc de blancs’ that contains a forgotten grape called Blanc Vrai.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"p2\"\u003eAbout the 2002 Harvest (Rated 9\/10)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 35\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA benchmark harvest that balances finesse, power and structure \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elike no other in Champagne’s recent history.

The vineyards were planted in the 1950's in the heart of the Côte des Blancs: Avize and Cramant, both classified as Grand Cru villages. Since 2000 they have started vinifying independently. Some Vins de Reserve have been added to create the first Cuvée: La Grand Vie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFood Suggestion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eIn development\u003c\/p\u003e"}
