Origin:

Produced in the Champagne region of France, particularly the Aube (Côte des Bar), Drappier Carte d’Or is crafted predominantly from Pinot Noir grown in limestone-rich soils. The region’s slightly warmer climate allows for fuller ripeness, resulting in a Champagne with depth and fruit expression while maintaining elegance and freshness. Traditional methods and careful blending contribute to its distinctive, house-driven style.
