Champagne of body and spirit made by  the marriage of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. Straight, round, generous, the Cuvee Crayères is made on average from a dozen different wines from 4 to 5 different vintages, with 20 to 25% of wines vinified in small oak barrels, with 70% reserve wines helping to bring homogeneity. Dosage extra brut: 3.5g/l

This Champagne gold in hue with small golden highlights. The nose reveals floral and mineral notes allowing upon aeration the release of red and white fruits. The palate is fresh and generous, playing with notes of spring berries.

Product Review

Eric Rodez captures the personality of Ambonnay from his very first cuvée, enticingly generous in its layered complexity of white peach, baked apple and honey, with oak contributing notes of spice. It’s supple, persistent and expressive of the sea-spray salt minerality of the village.  92/100 - Tyson Stelzer 

Floral and elegant, nice introduction to the house style. Persistent with elegant mousse this is delicious with lots of flavour and depth.  Stephen Tanzer 92/100
