“From the great vintage for white burgundy comes the Côte de nuits Blanc, from Bertrand Amboise. A naturally rich white, with structure and a little oak influence. Excellent. Serve cool but not to chilled and allow to develop in the glass or bottle for some time perhaps even decant for 30 minutes before drinking.” Fraziers Maison Ambroise is a long-established, small négociant house, who operates on 21 hectares of their own vineyards and purchase grapes from another 3. They own vines in Prémeaux, Nuits-St-Georges, Ladoix, Meursault, the hill of Corton, Vosne-Romanée (with some Grand Cru Echezeaux!), Gevrey-Chambertin, Vougeot, Beaune and as far as Saint-Romain. As always with similarly parcelled estates in Burgundy, logistics is key. Bertrand Ambroise was recently joined by his son Francois and daughter Ludivine, they have just received their organic certification (2013). Ludivine explained the move to organic viticulture is one of true belief as she lost her grandfather due to illness caused by chemicals used in the fields. Harvested manually, neither filtered nor fined, the wines are classic and expressive with distinct terroir-influenced personalities.
