After the still wines, the champagne house Drappier has released another innovation in spring. Trop M'en Faut is organically grown and vinified in its natural state. It is made from the grape variety Fromenteau Gris, which was widespread in Champagne 300 years ago and is otherwise known as Pinot Gris or Pinot Gris. Today, Fromenteau accounts for only 0.3 per cent of the AOC Champagne. The grapes for Trop M'en Faut come from the 2017 and 2018 harvests from the Drappier monopollage "les Truchots" and are produced using cultivation methods unchanged since the 12th century.
To emphasise the character of the variety, fermentation takes place with a special autochthonous yeast in demi-muid oak barrels. The wines are aged in the bottle for 24 months without any dosage, filtration or clarification. Malolactic fermentation takes place naturally. Trop M'en Faut belongs to a new generation of natural Drappier wines called Les Èphéméres, which aim to express the purest expression of the region's terroir.
