Drappier Quattuor Blanc de Quatre Blancs

Valentina Ricci — This is what champagne should taste like

10/10

I've been slowly working my way through different champagnes this year and this might be my favourite so far. Four different grape varieties and you can actually taste how they work together — it's complex without being confusing. The finish just lingers perfectly. Worth every penny.

8/10

Treated myself to this over the holidays. It's proper champagne — none of that harsh fizz you get with cheaper stuff. Really clean taste with layers of fruit that kind of unfold as you sip. Paired it with some smoked salmon and it was perfect. Not an everyday buy at that price but a real treat.

Jorge Castillo — Blanc de quatre blancs is a new one on me

9/10

Never heard of a four-grape blanc de blancs before so I was curious. Really glad I tried it — there's a complexity here that you don't get from a standard blanc de blancs. The acidity is spot on, the mousse is super fine, and at 12.5% it doesn't knock you sideways. Drappier know what they're doing.
