🌎 CHAMPAGNE DRAPPIER Grande Sendree 2012
Grande Sendrée is names after numerous plots of land on the famed Kimmeridgian chalk - the same chalk formation that houses Chablis at its conclusion. A fire ravaged the area of Urville (NW France) in 1836. Due to a municipal admin area the area known as Cendree (cinders) changed to Sendree.
