Veuve Ambal Description
Our Grande Cuvée Brut Veuve Ambal is composed predominantly of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, complemented by a touch of Aligoté and Gamay.
Upon reception of the harvest, which is carried out exclusively by hand, only the richer and more complex first presses are retained for this blend. The wine is then aged on racks for 12 to 18 months in our Burgundy cellars in order to impart aromatic intensity.
Tasting Notes: The delicate sparkle of this Crémant de Bourgogne is emphasised by its golden yellow hue and fine bubbles. The harmonious and fruity palate reveals notes of exotic fruits.
Food Pairing: Enjoy served as an apéritif, with hard cheeses or alongside creamy chicken dishes.
Wine Spectator: 89 Points
A salty, fresh version, showing expressive grilled citrus and orchard fruit set against smoke, bitter almond and flinty mineral notes. Weighty and plenty ripe, with a vanilla paste undertone. Razor's edge acidity keeps this balanced and clean. Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Gamay and Aligoté.
