Cistercian cellars of the Drappier house in Urville, organizing a visit to discover their beauty and monumentality
Drappier champagnes do not just offer you incomparable wines, they also propose to enter a place steeped in history, the disturbing strangeness: its cellars of the th century, the objective of visiting them alone, inescapable by their beauty and symmetry. In 1116 Saint Bernard imports from Burgundy the black Engineer, ancestor of Pinot, and made several cellars, especially in Urville, properties attached to the great Abbey of Clairvaux that he founded. Upon his death, in 1153, wine production was around 600 000 litres of wine, mainly shipped in barrels, called: " bar wine ". Later, the Drappier house bought the mansions caves. Today it houses a few famous vintages and its largest "vials" (Balthazar, Jeroboam, Melchisédech, etc.).

Dégustation décevante, sur 3 verres, 2 étaient sans bulles. Je l'ai signalé mais ça n'avait pas l'air de les étonner.
Hier wordt je echt netjes en goed behandeld kortom top
La cuvée Carte d'or, cépage Pinot noir, Meunier et Chardonnay est excellente.
Rappelons que le Général de Gaulle était amateur de ce champagne.
Nous accompagnons apéritif, viande blanche, fromage et dessert avec la cuvée Carte d'or.
Aujourd'hui 11 mars 2025, la Maison Drappier a accepté de nous recevoir.
André Drappier est décédé la semaine passée. Aujourd'hui, a lieu l'enterrement.
Par la pensée nous nous joignons à la famille Drappier.
