Tasting Note
This wine, opulent and very expressive, reflects the character of wines of the “Côte de Nuits”. Attractive but full character, you will find red fruits and ripe fruits, a little bit sweet. Spicy touch shows his youth. With time, you will find truffle and wood aromas, characterizing of aging. Prefer meats like game with a lot of tastes, but also cheese like Epoisses or Langres.
Winemaking Winery
Vineyards aged between 80 and 110 years. The grapes are harvested by hand, in box of 15kg. Once at the winery, they are sorted and de-stemmed at 50%. The grapes are put in vats for 25 days for the alcoholic fermentation.
Only wild yeast is used. Then, the new wine stays in 400 liters oak barrel 60% new, 50% 1 year old for 12 to 14 months. We don’t make any fining or filtration.
Soil Type: Clay and limestone with some silt.
Winery
Maison Ambroise, with origins dating back to the 18th century, settled in Premeaux-Prissey. In 1987, Bertrand Ambroise took over the estate, growing it to about 52 acres.
They now boast Grand Cru Vineyards in Clos de Vougeot and Corton, along with Premier Cru Vineyards in Nuits-St-Georges: Les Terres Blanches (Blanc), Les Argillières, En Rue de Chaux, and Les Vaucrains.
Driven by his love for wine, Bertrand transitioned to organic practices, crafting a blend of 30% Chardonnay and 70% Pinot Noir. Their meticulous winemaking involves hand-sorting and precise fermentation techniques.
The initial fermentation lasts around 7 days at 6-8°C, followed by a second fermentation at 13°C for roughly 10 days. Subsequently, the wines undergo a 4-5 month malolactic fermentation in oak barrels, ageing for 10 to 18 months based on their concentration.
