Pierre Trichet La Puissance Brut (750ml)

Pierre Trichet's La Puissance Brut is a Blanc de Noirs Champagne made entirely from Pinot Noir, the darker-skinned grape that dominates the Montagne de Reims in northern France. This non-vintage blend draws its character from the house's philosophy of favoring structure and depth in sparkling wine, the result of careful skin contact and measured use of oak.

The wine shows the body and mineral grip you'd expect from Pinot Noir handled this way, with enough weight to stand on its own without the flash of lighter styles. Expect brioche and stone fruit to move across the palate, anchored by the acidity and fine bubbles that Champagne's cool climate and traditional method naturally provide. This is a sparkling wine built for food, or for drinkers who want their bubbles to taste like something.
