Pinot Blanc, macerated on its skins, then turned into zero-dosage Champagne. That's about as far from the usual Champagne recipe as you can get, and Thibaud Brocard knows it: he calls Absimilis an experiment, something set apart in the world of Champagne. The 2019 is 100% Pinot Blanc, a rare grape to find bottled on its own here, and the skin contact pulls out tropical notes of mango, pineapple and papaya before a palate with real structure takes over. It's bottled Brut Nature, so there's no added sugar to soften anything or cover anything up. Absimilis is a single-parcel cuvée made only in small quantities, from a grower who uses no synthetic chemicals in his vineyards. This one's for the curious drinker who already knows what Champagne usually tastes like and wants to hear something new.

More about Brocard Pierre

Champagne Brocard Pierre is based in Celles-sur-Ource, in the heart of the Côte des Bar at Champagne's warmer southern end. Thibaut Brocard took over the family estate from his father Pierre in 2012, bringing ideas from time spent working in Burgundy. Farming has moved toward organic, guided by biodynamic principles, and the hand-harvested, Pinot Noir-led wines are made with minimal intervention, showing real tension and vinosity. A fresh, uncompromising take on a corner of Champagne many drinkers overlook.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Thai green curry with chicken, roast pork belly with mango salsa, lobster in brown butter, or a wedge of aged Comté. The grower's advice is to give it a meal with real character.

Tasting Profile

Ripe tropical aromas of mango, pineapple and papaya. The palate is structured and lingers, with the grip that comes from skin contact. No dosage, so it finishes completely dry.

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
