About this wine

La Fontinette comes from a 1 ha parcel on sandy marl soils with ~55-year-old vines, farmed organically (in conversion toward biodynamics). The base wine is 2020, fermented with native yeasts and aged in small barrels, then finished as Brut Nature—a format that emphasizes soil, sapid fruit, and phenolic grip. Disgorged January 2024, it balances freshness with barrel-borne breadth, making it an excellent pairing Champagne (crudo, roast chicken, creamy seafood).

Tasting Note

Single-parcel Meunier showing crystalline fruit and discreet élevage: red-apple crunch, orchard blossom, light toast and wet stone. The palate is precise and vertical, with bright drive, fine mousse and a chalky, tapering close.

In the glass

Bright straw; fine mousse with a slightly vinous texture.

In the nose

Meunier orchard fruit, light pastry tones, and a sandy-mineral nuance.

On the palate

Bone-dry; textured and savory, finishing clean and chalky.

Nowack

A historic Vandières family in the Vallée de la Marne, with the contemporary project driven by Flavien Nowack, who has pushed the domaine toward a more terroir-explicit, parcel-by-parcel approach. The house is widely associated with Meunier and a low-intervention philosophy, with multiple bottlings built around single lieux-dits and site expression, alongside a firm commitment to organic/biodynamic practice in trade materials.
