Description
What kind of wine it is
Neret Vely Champagne Blanc de Noirs La 5G Extra Brut is an elegant Blanc de Noirs created from a meticulous blend of Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir grapes. The tasting reveals a fresh and balanced style, capable of combining aromatic precision with remarkable breadth. On the nose, it is refined, with clear fruity notes intertwined with characteristic hints of matcha tea. On the palate, it is generous, supported by lively acidity that makes each sip harmonious and satisfying. Ideal as an aperitif, this Traditional Method pairs elegantly with light starters, fish dishes, shellfish, and cheese selections.
Where it comes from
This wine originates from the prestigious Champagne region, specifically within the Marne Valley. The local climate, influenced by oceanic currents, gives the grapes pronounced freshness, outlining a pure and dynamic territorial expression. Production is entirely overseen by Neret Vely, an independent winemaker who adopts an artisanal approach, working under organic and sustainable agriculture. This ongoing commitment preserves biodiversity and brings the authentic essence of the Marne Valley to the glass, in full respect of nature's rhythms.
How it is produced
The process faithfully follows the principles of the Traditional Method, defining a rigorous oenological profile. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation, achieving greater gustatory balance without losing its natural liveliness. This is followed by a slow three-year maturation on the lees, a crucial period for imparting structure and enriching the aromatic bouquet. The Extra Brut dosage gives a dry and linear finish, enhancing the smoothness and tension of the drink. This careful vinification ultimately ensures excellent ageing potential, estimated between five and ten years.
History and Curiosities
Created by the independent winemaker Neret Vely, active since 1945, “La 5G” is a fascinating Champagne from the Marne Valley. The name celebrates the balanced extra brut dosage of five grams per litre, capable of offering a generous and harmonious tasting experience. The splendid label entitled “Ode to Life”, masterfully illustrated by Kevin De Tunne, depicts an old tractor immersed in unspoilt nature, bearing witness to the company’s organic and sustainable vocation. A true artisanal tribute to the land, matured with the utmost care for three years.

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
