Luxurious Beverage Of The Month: Champagne Christian Briard Ambre 2005

Ambre 2005 was created by France’s Champagne Christian Briard to take advantage of the very best of the Marne Valley River grapes harvested during 2005.

Ambre 2005 was created by France’s Champagne Christian Briard to take advantage of the very best of the Marne Valley River grapes harvested during 2005.This was a really special year, dry and hot with cold periods during winter and the ripening season.

The blends found in this beverage are made from the best Pinot Meuniers (66%), Pinots Noirs (14%) and Chardonnay (20%) grapes. The Chief Cellar master, M. Philippe Dupuis, made it as an extremely refined wine, structured with rich and complex material. The colour is a rich and intensively gold shade. The nose reveals an intricate array of aromas marrying fresh flowers with yellow fruits such as apricot. On the palate, the sensation is both soft and invigorating with wonderful depth and complexity.

Ambre 2005 has been aged in our cellars for over eight years, and the final result is breath-taking. Housed in an elegant symphony-shaped bottle, this is a really elegant champagne and one which can be enjoyed during those very special moments.
