Champagne Drappier
Brut Nature Zero Dosage
FYI Brut Nature:
-
- Historically, Michel Drappier was one of the Brut Nature pioneers in Champagne in the 80’s
- Purest version of Pinot Noir champagne: no sugar added (dosage), no filtration, no fining, no discolouration
- Complementary / different in a wine list ; not a traditional brut, not a Blanc de Blancs.
- Great price positioning / BTG and BTB
