Champagne Flavien Nowack

Image
In my last wine trip I had the pleasure to visit the new upcoming producer Flavien from the family Nowack. The house Champagne is situated in the "Valle de la Marne" in the village of Vandieres in the right bank where the Pinot Meunier is the main cepage, with various soils predominaly sandy and clay. Vandieres with Damery, Chatillon sur Marne and Reuil give to this part of Champagne a great importance. Flavien Nowack is a young guy with experience outside of champagne, he worked in east Europe in the region Etyek Budai with the producer Hernyak Birtok and also work with the famous Mersault producer Coche Dury. Flavien in order to finance his new project, he continue to make traditional blended Champagne under the family label (Champagne Nowack) a great traditional producer. Flavien start at his father domaine in 2012 with 3 hectare of vine with the idea to convert everything in organic farming, in-fact in 2016 all his vines in total 6,5 hectare has been certified. H
