Description
What kind of wine it is
Neret Vely Champagne Meunier Blanc de Noirs Brut Nature Les Echalas is the ideal Champagne to fully appreciate the characteristics of Pinot Meunier. This sparkling wine stands out for its brilliant straw yellow colour and fine perlage. The bouquet harmoniously blends aromas of red fruits with lively citrus notes. On tasting, this Blanc de Noirs reveals itself as intense, elegant and mineral. Its dry and direct profile makes it excellent paired with shellfish, lean fish and cheeses.
Where it comes from
This wine is produced in France, in the Marne Valley, a renowned wine-growing area. The Neret Vely vineyards are cultivated according to the principles of organic and sustainable agriculture. The area benefits from a constant oceanic influence, a key climatic factor in preserving the freshness of the grapes. This geographical imprint translates into a marked minerality on the palate, delivering a taut and clean sip, deeply connected to its land.
How it is produced
Production strictly follows the rules of the Traditional Method, with natural refermentation in the bottle. The oenological choice to avoid malolactic fermentation preserves the original tension and freshness of the fruit. A long ageing on the lees precisely defines the texture of the bubbles and the aromatic complexity. Finally, the absence of added sugars at disgorgement ensures a rigorous Brut Nature style, offering a dry, clean and elegant finish.
History and Curiosities
Produced by Neret Vely, a proud “Vigneron since 1945”, this Champagne embodies the essence of organic viticulture in the Marne Valley. The Les Echalas cuvée expresses the purity of the terroir through a rigorous Brut Nature style. Sealing the house’s eco-friendly commitment is the “Ode to Life” label by Kevin De Tunne: depicting an old tractor reclaimed by nature, the artwork celebrates a deep respect for the environment and a philosophy of absolute sustainability.

What's more, after 8 years of loyal service, it was time for our labels to make way. We wanted to create new labels that reflected the identity of the House and my own philosophy.
Each of our new labels is finely illustrated by Kevin De Tunne (KTD art.), a young artist from Reims. The first to appear is that of your Blanc de Noirs cuvée, with a drawing of our old tractor invaded by wildlife. It is now called "Ode to Life". Read more
