From the family Jeep to exceptional bubbles: Hugo Drappier's odyssey

Born in the heart of Champagne, Hugo Drappier didn't grow up like other children. While others played with toy cars, he criss-crossed the vineyards in a Jeep with his grandfather, "Papyou", a sandbox in the back to keep him busy between plots. By the age of 10, he was pruning his first vines and already knew he would be carrying on the legacy of the Maison Drappier, of which he proudly embodies the 8ᵉ generation.

But before returning to his native land, Hugo took to the high seas: after a BTS in Viticulture and Oenology in Beaune, he honed his skills in Switzerland, New Zealand, South Africa and the greatest vineyards of France. A voyage of initiation that enriched his vision of wine and strengthened his determination to develop Champagne viticulture.

In 2016, he took up the family torch with a clear mission: to combine tradition and innovation. Under his leadership, Drappier became the first carbon-neutral champagne house, and he refined ever more respectful winemaking methods, notably by eliminating sulfur from certain cuvées.

And when he's not making glasses sparkle, he's flying - literally. An aviation enthusiast, he is a private pilot and, between flights, he sometimes swaps the bottle for a helmet: Hugo is also a volunteer fireman.

A winemaker, an innovator, an adventurer. A man who proves that behind every bubble, there's a story to tell.
