Flavien Nowack Sans Année is a non-vintage grower Champagne from Vandières. Flavien Nowack focuses on parcel-specific winemaking and organic viticulture, with this cuvée serving as a transparent introduction to the house style. A blend primarily of Meunier and Chardonnay, it undergoes fermentation with indigenous yeasts and a long maturation on lees to develop textural breadth. The profile exhibits notes of red apple, citrus peel and a distinct flinty minerality characteristic of the local limestone and clay soils. It possesses a fine, persistent mousse and a low dosage that allows the vinous character of the fruit to remain the central focus.
