For one of Champagne’s most forward thinking producers, Drappier has no shortage of historic roots. Based in Urville, in the Aube, where Pinot Noir is king, the eight-generation family business – the house was founded in 1808 – still occupies magnificent twelfth-century cellars built by Cisterian monks. Today, Michel Drappier and his three children, Charline, Hugo and Antoine are stilling craft complex Champagnes from their unique calcareous terroir and still cultivating the forgotten grapes of Champagne according to organic and natural practices. Sustainability pioneers, the Drappiers have been investing for over 10 years to massively reduce their glasshouse effect gas and change their everyday behaviour to become the first and only carbon neutral certified Champagne house. Terroir driven, while practicing minimal intervention and minimal dosage, Champagne Drappier is a new wave producer keeping the champagne dream alive.
