Blanc de IV Blancs Quattuor

Four white grape varieties in equal parts: Arbane, Petit Meslier, Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay. Drappier describes the Quattuor as the first and still only white champagne of its kind. Arbane and Petit Meslier have become rare in Champagne, and here they bring their own note to the blend. It is aged entirely in vats, which preserves freshness.

In the glass it shows a very clear yellow with delicate green highlights and a fine mousse. The nose recalls smoke, citrus fruit, apple honey and green tea. On the palate, freshness and minerality impress, and the finish is fine. Serve it at 8 to 10°C in a white wine glass with a little volume so the aromas can unfold. It suits the aperitif, seafood, fish without sauce or veal carpaccio with white truffles.
