The production of Rosé de Saignée Drappier champagne
Champagne Drappier's Rosé de Saignée is made exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes grown on the Jurassic Kimmeridgian limestone soils of Urville, in the Aube region. These soils offer a very pronounced mineral richness.
The saignée method is at the heart of this cuvée, with a three-day maceration to fully extract the red fruit aromas and intense color of Pinot Noir. Part of the cuvée is aged in oak casks, which gives it additional complexity. Malolactic fermentation is carried out to bring roundness to the wine. This champagne is low in sulfites and retains all its natural character thanks to a low dosage of 4 g/L.
