Champagne Terres Bleues 2021 -  Domaine Nowack

  Champagnes from the estate

Champagne Nowack Terres Bleues 2021 is one of the estate’s most captivating single-parcel cuvées, sourced from a distinctive terroir composed of blue marl, which gives the wine its name. This unique soil contributes remarkable aromatic depth and natural tension. Crafted primarily from Pinot Meunier, the cuvée delivers a pure expression of Vandières. The 2021 vintage, marked by pronounced freshness and moderate ripeness, enhances the mineral identity and finely chiseled elegance that define Terres Bleues.

Vinification is carried out with indigenous yeasts and a gentle, minimal-intervention approach to preserve every nuance of the terroir. Depending on the parcel, fermentation may occur in tanks or barrels to maintain the balance between aromatic clarity and structural refinement. The wine reveals a sophisticated profile with fresh apple, citrus notes, delicate chalkiness and a subtle saline edge. The bubbles are fine and integrated, supporting a palate that is energetic, linear and vibrant, true to the character of the vintage.

Technically, Terres Bleues 2021 is released as an Extra Brut or Brut Nature depending on the bottling, with an exceptionally low dosage that highlights precision and the raw expression of the terroir. Alcohol sits around 12 percent and ageing on lees adds gentle texture while extending the finish without weighing the wine down. Minerality serves as the guiding thread, giving this cuvée a sincere, deep and highly elegant identity.

On the palate, Terres Bleues 2021 appeals to enthusiasts of incisive, terroir-driven Champagne as well as lovers of single-vineyard expressions. Its purity, verticality and brightness make it an ideal partner for refined food pairings such as iodized fish, delicate sashimi or chalky cheeses. It is one of the cuvées that best reflects the sensitive and precise approach of the Nowack estate.
