Brut

2020

Bouteille 75cL

Made from a single year’s harvest, our Crémant de Bourgogne Millésimé 2020 reflects the finesse of a great vintage, while remaining true to the harmony of the Veuve Ambal style. In our range, it embodies the ambition to express both the house signature and the nuances of a specific vintage. The 2020 is distinguished by its roundness and depth, revealed through long maturation on laths. Designed for curious connoisseurs and fine dining, it is at its best with a bistronomic approach, as an aperitif for lunch or dinner, where the bubbles are the perfect accompaniment to the moment.

Foaming and ageing

Liqueur de tirage (a mixture of yeast and sugar) and leaven are added to the wines before bottling. Under the action of the yeast, carbon dioxide generates effervescence. The bottles remain on laths for a minimum of 18 months at constant temperature in our cellars. This prolonged ageing allows the wine to develop its specific aromas and to offer bubbles of great finesse. The bottles are then stirred and disgorged to remove any yeast deposits. A dosage-determining expedition liqueur is added before labeling.

Harvest

Manual

Winemaking

On receipt of the harvest, we carry out slow pressing using our pneumatic presses. The first pressings, richer and more complex, are selected to produce the best base wines. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. After vinification, our team of oenologists meticulously composes the blend.
