Merchant's description

Ambriel Classic Cuvée is a non-vintage, Champagne-method sparkling wine produced in West Sussex, UK. A classic blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, this excellent-value English sparkling wine spends five years ageing on lees before disgorgement, offering a dry, racy palate with hints of white flowers and toast. "Very impressive effort from Ambriel, this Chardonnay-dominant cuvee with 5 years on its lees scored one of the highest marks in our tasting. Rich biscuity notes, delicious baked apple notes, balanced lively acidity, rich creamy length with good complexity for the price." Rose Murray Brown MW, 2022
