Domaine Nowack Autre Cru Extra Brut, Champagne, France NV
$90.00
Organic. 100% Meunier. Base vintage 2021; a small amount of reserve wine from ’20 blended in. In 2021, the terroirs for ‘Autre Cru’ is a selection of vineyards from villages located on both the left and right banks of the Marne Valley, outside of Flavien’s home village of Vandières. Vinification is with both spontaneous yeasts as well as selected strains from the estate; all aging is done in oak barrels. Dosage 1g/l, disgorged Jan ’24. This release is steely, with an iron undertone, full of salt, herbs, and savoriness. A great showing for this vintage despite the difficult season.
