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.).

Винятковий досвід, прекрасне місце! Дуже тепла атмосфера й спогади на довгі роки. Пройшло 6 місяців, у нас вечеря з улюбленим шампанським ❤️

Helaas niet wat we hadden gehoopt. De Engelse tour zou ongeveer binnen 20 minuten beginnen. Uiteindelijk hebben we meer dan een uur (!) gewacht. De tour viel tegen (van mr. Drappier). Het was voornamelijk in het Frans en af en toe werd er iets vertaald naar het Engels, terwijl het een Engelse tour zou zijn. Vragen die in het Engels gesteld werden werden vertaald naar het Frans. Franse vragen werden daarentegen niet vertaald naar het Engels en werden alleen in het Frans beantwoord. De proeverij was chaotisch zonder uitleg van de wijnen. Helaas een matige ervaring maar de champagne maakt een hoop goed.

Great champagne made by family Drappier. Incredible history with their underground cellars. Awesome experience!

Un lieu unique chargé d'histoire. La dégustation se déroule dans une ambiance chaleureuse et familiale. La simplicité pour un champagne d'exception. Dédicace à notre caviste breton (Le Carafon, Thorigné 35) qui nous a fait découvrir.
