Maison Ambroise, Hautes-Cotes-De-Nuits Blanc, 2024

Maison Ambroise’s Hautes-Côtes-de-Nuits Blanc 2024 is an elegant, terroir-driven Chardonnay that captures the freshness and finesse of Burgundy’s higher-altitude vineyards. Grown on limestone-rich soils and crafted with a balance of precision and oak-influenced texture, it offers both charm and depth in a distinctly classic style.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a bright, polished profile with a clean, luminous expression of Chardonnay. The bouquet opens with toasted notes, butter blossom, citrus, and a subtle touch of honey, giving way to a palate that is rounded and gently creamy, yet firmly lifted by vibrant acidity and a stony, chalky mineral edge. The wine feels poised and energetic, with enough structure to develop nicely over the coming years. While it is already appealing for its balance and finesse, it should continue to gain nuance and complexity with short- to medium-term cellaring.

Production
This wine comes from vines planted at around 350 meters in the Hautes-Côtes de Nuits, where the cooler altitude helps preserve freshness and aromatic lift. The vineyards are rooted in limestone soils with small stones, lending the wine its mineral backbone and shape, while the 30-year-old vines are farmed sustainably and harvested by hand. The grapes are whole-bunch pressed, and the must is clarified naturally before being transferred to oak barrels, including 40% new oak. The wine then matures for 12 months, a regimen that adds texture, depth, and subtle toasty complexity without overshadowing the purity of the fruit.

Food & Serving
This is a versatile Burgundy Chardonnay that pairs beautifully with grilled fish, white meats such as roast chicken or veal, and firm aged cheeses. Serve it slightly chilled, ideally around 10–12°C, to show both its freshness and creamy texture. Decanting is not necessary, though a short aeration can help if opening the bottle early after release.
