Domaine Nowack La Tuilerie Champagne-Style Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Sparkling Wine

Discover Domaine Nowack’s exceptional Champagne crafted from 100% Chardonnay grapes sourced exclusively from their prized La Tuilerie vineyard in Vandières, Champagne. This biodynamic wine embodies the region’s terroir through meticulous sustainable practices and precise winemaking techniques.

Nestled on south-facing slopes at 100–120 meters elevation, the vineyard’s white sand and limestone soils—underlain by ancient marine deposits—contribute vibrant minerality and finesse to each bottle. The vines, averaging 25 years of age, thrive in this unique environment to produce grapes of exceptional balance and complexity.

The winemaking process honors tradition while embracing natural methods: spontaneous fermentation occurs in small oak barrels and stainless steel tanks, followed by aging in oak for the base wine. No chaptalization, fining, or filtering ensures purity of expression. Malolactic fermentation unfolds naturally each spring without intervention.

Secondary fermentation via the MCR method ages the wine on its lees for an impressive 42 months—disgorged after December 2019—resulting in a delicate texture and nuanced depth. With a minimalist dosage of just 1g/L, this Champagne shines with crisp acidity, honeyed notes of citrus and stone fruit, and a lingering saline finish.

Ideal for celebrations or savoring solo, its elegant profile pairs beautifully with seafood or as an apéritif. A standout among Chardonnay-dominant Champagnes, Domaine Nowack’s commitment to biodynamics and minimal intervention delivers a wine that reflects both its origins and artisanal craftsmanship.

At 12% alcohol by volume, this limited-release offering combines rarity with approachable elegance—a testament to Vandières’ hidden potential and Domaine Nowack’s dedication to excellence.
