About this wine

Les Terres Bleues is sourced from the top of the best slope Nowack farms in Vandières (high-altitude “haut-côteau”), on the distinctive fossil-rich limestone known as terres bleues. This release is 100% Meunier, all fruit from harvest 2021, vinified with fully spontaneous yeasts, kept unfined and unfiltered, and raised in small oak barrels. Disgorged January 2025 with 1 g/L dosage, it’s structured, saline, and unapologetically terroir-first—Champagne for serious Burgundy drinkers.

Tasting Note

Meunier with cut and clarity: green apple, citrus oil, chalk and a subtle saline edge. Lively and sculpted on the palate, combining tension with texture, finishing long and mineral with a mouth-watering snap.

In the glass

Medium straw; fine, persistent bead.

In the nose

Ripe orchard fruit, crushed fossil chalk, subtle oak spice.

On the palate

Broad but tensile; saline minerality drives a long, dry finish.

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.
