DRAPPIER CARTE D'OR BRUT, Champagne

The fine bubbles linger beautifully and the rich Pinot Noir character gives it a depth you don’t usually find at this price point. Perfect for a celebratory toast that actually tastes interesting.

The heavy Pinot Noir presence really comes through in the glass, making it feel richer than your typical brut. The aromas are noticeably fine and aromatic, and the bubbles stay lively from the first pour to the last.

I was surprised by how the 75% Pinot Noir gives it a richer, more structured body than most Champagnes I've tried. The bubbles are incredibly fine and persistent, and it paired beautifully with a simple cheese plate. Definitely ordering another bottle for the holidays.
