Champagne Drappier Millesime Exception 2018
The idea of the Exception Vintage is to put a season under glass. Beyond the wine, there is in this cuvée, the climate of a remarkable, exceptional year. The terroir fades in front of the four seasons.
Tasting :
The beautiful sun of summer 2014 and the cool rains have given the grapes beautiful cheeks. The Pinot Noir dominates with its notes of violet and blackcurrant. The chardonnay, vanilla by wood enriches this beautiful 2014, creamy and long in the mouth.
Service :
Ideal as an aperitif. Perfect with a grilled sea bass with aniseed and lemon, a risotto, a sole a la plancha, a blanquette of veal à l'ancienne, an andouillette of Troyes in Champagne, a white pudding with foie gras, a bleu des Causses. Serve at 7°c.
