The wine region of Champagne Grand Cru 'Ambonnay'
Emblematic Grand Cru village of the Grande Montagne de Reims (387 ha, 81% Pinot Noir): Pinot Noir is the Champagne signature red king — powerful, rich and deep signature profile with intense notes of ripe red fruit (cherry, raspberry), crunchy apple, a toasty touch, full, textured wine-like structure and length, finesse completing the strength. Full south-facing slope, Cretaceous chalk bringing structure and elegance, historic cradle of red and saignée rosé Coteaux Champenois.
The wine region of Champagne
World benchmark sparkling wines: fine bubbles, citrusy tension, notes of brioche, toasted almond, white flowers and white-fleshed fruits after ageing on lees. Three grapes blended or solo: fleshy Pinot Noir (38%), fruity Meunier (33%), chiselled Chardonnay (28%). From straight Blanc de Blancs to vinous Blanc de Noirs, from non-vintage Brut to age-worthy Millésimé. AOC since 1927, 34,300 ha on chalk, 17 Grands Crus and 44 Premiers Crus.
The word of the wine: Wooded
A set of aromas brought about by ageing in barrels (usually oak). This can be pleasant when, in small doses, it brings a touch of spice, roast or vanilla to an already constructed ensemble. When the violent woodiness dominates the wine, it is quickly tiring. Easily identifiable aromatically, it is sought after (to the point of abuse) by the makers of coarse wines. New World manufacturers and, alas, some French winemakers use oak chips to impart the woody taste, which is tantamount to artificial flavoring.
