| Champagne Drappier Brut Carte D'Or Champage Pinot Noir and Chardonnay Blend 375ml 24 Pack Champagne, France
|
Product Notes: Cart d'Or-Brut is predominantly from the white juice of the black grape, Pinot Noir, with just a little Chardonnay added to provide that buttery smooth palate. It is fresh but mature, has complex flavours & full of rich fruit.From the Winemaker
Drappier's Carte d'Or Brut champagne has all the aroma of the Pinot Noir quality grape variety, which in fact makes up 90% of the blend. This is a black grape with white juice and is highly prized not only for its structure but also for the subtle notes of red fruits which characterize it. A touch of Chardonnay gives freshness, while the more souple Pinot Meunier grapes impart a fine after-taste. By using only the most noble extracts go to make up this blend, for which Drappier is justly famed. From the Winemaker

 About Varietal: Champagne is produced as a blend between the Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay grapes. The amount of each of these grapes differs from shipper to shipper, and some Champagne ? such as blanc de blancs or blanc de noir ? uses only Chardonnay grapes or only Pinot Noir grapes. There are three primary levels of quality within any given Champagne shipper. Non-vintage Champagne uses grapes blended from a number of years, vintage Champagne uses all grapes from one specific year, and prestige cuvTe Champagne uses all grapes from one specific year, from the first pressing, and has aged for a longer period of time. Not every year produces either vintage or prestige varieties, though recently about one-in-three years have done so.
