The Drappier Champagne Grande Sendrée 2015, 12% vol., in a 0.75 l bottle with a gift box, is one of the most renowned prestige cuvées from the House of Champagne Drappier. Named after the historic vineyard La Grande Sendrée, whose name dates back to a devastating fire in 1836, this vintage champagne represents the very best quality the Maison has to offer. The 2015 vintage combines power, elegance and exceptional ageing potential, and is one of the house’s most expressive releases.


The cuvée is crafted from the classic Champagne grape varieties Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Around half of the grapes come directly from the prestigious Sendrée Lager. To add further complexity, around a third of the wines are aged in wooden barrels. The champagne is then left to mature on the lees for at least five years, during which time it develops its remarkable depth, structure and complexity. With an alcohol content of 12% vol., this vintage champagne from France is both powerful and precise. Its exceptional balance between fruit, minerality and maturity makes it an excellent choice for discerning champagne lovers. Thanks to its potential, the Grande Sendrée 2015 can easily continue to mature until at least 2038, developing further complexity.
