Champagne Fontinette 2021 - Domaine Nowack
Champagnes from the estate
Champagne Nowack Fontinette 2021 is a precise and refined single-parcel cuvée highlighting one of the estate’s emblematic lieux-dits. Crafted primarily from Pinot Meunier grown on the Fontinette parcel in Vandières, this wine stands out for its purity and elegance. The 2021 vintage, cooler and more linear than previous years, brings vibrant energy and a delicately sculpted aromatic profile. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts and a minimal-intervention approach allow the fruit’s authenticity to shine through. The wine expresses notes of crisp white fruit, fine citrus and a subtle underlying minerality, resulting in a Champagne that is bright, focused and expressive.
Technically, Fontinette 2021 is produced as an Extra Brut or Brut Nature depending on the release, with a very low dosage that accentuates the natural tension of the vintage. Alcohol levels sit around 12 percent and ageing on lees adds a gentle texture while preserving the wine’s vertical and energetic character. On the palate, the cuvée is fine and precise with a clean, elongated finish. It appeals to lovers of pure Meunier expressions and demonstrates the Nowack estate’s talent for revealing terroir with finesse and restraint. Fontinette 2021 is delightful on its own or paired with delicate dishes that highlight its balance and freshness.
