The Drappier vineyard covers 100 hectares and constitutes the House’s essential trump card. Since 1808 our family has used its skill to select parcels of land which are particularly well exposed and extremely rich in limestone. For the most part they are located around Urville, where Pinot Noir, the predominant grape variety, finds its loveliest expression and allows the production of very elegant, aromatic wines.

Although the vines in Urville were originally planted by the Romans 2000 years ago it was Saint Bernard founder of Clairvaux Abbey who had our cellars built in 1152. Seven centuries later in 1808 around this magnificently preserved testimony to medieval times where the exceptional cuvées slumber the family domaine was created which today is headed by Michel Drappier. An area in which Pinot Noir thrives a grape variety which “runs through our veins” Urville lies where our vineyard was first planted and is now cultivated according to organic and natural principles.
