"The 2021 Coteaux Champenois Ambonnay Rouge Cuvée des Grands Côtes is beautifully perfumed and enticing right out of the gate. Crushed rose petal, spice, dried herbs, mint and lavender meld into a core of dark red/purplish berry fruit. Medium in body and savory, with fine balance, the 2021 Ambonnay Rouge is a very pleasant surprise, especially for the year."
Winemaker Notes:
"Low-yielding estate vines, rated grand cru, are located in Ambonnay. Winemaker Francis Egly selects fruit from older vines mid-slope from a series of parcels that are in the form of a natural amphitheater, all essentially facing south. Silky yet weighty; the wine’s texture reminds of Chambolle-Musigny. Flavors suggest red berries, light vanilla, crushed stones; a symphony of precise aroma and flavor. Very rare!"
