Veuve Ambal estates

Exceptional terroirs for unique Crémants

Veuve Ambal cultivates over 220 hectares of vines on the finest terroirs in Burgundy. This wealth of soils, climates and exposure enables us to create Crémants de Bourgogne that are elegant, complex and accessible.

  • Molesme (36 ha) – On the northern edge of Burgundy, this limestone terroir produces remarkably lively wines with notes of red fruit and pastries.

  • Auxerrois, near Chablis (44 ha) – Kimmeridgian soils provide minerality and tension, for Crémants with expressive freshness.

  • Hautes Côtes de Nuits, at Bevy (36 ha) – High-altitude terroir producing balanced, delicate wines with aromas of citrus, white flowers and dried fruit.

  • Côte Chalonnaise (72 ha) – Between Couchois and Maranges, a well-exposed vineyard offering generous, structured wines dominated by red and black berries.

  • Mâconnais, around Igé and Blanot (36 ha) – Sun-drenched hillsides sublimate Chardonnay, for Crémants with a full texture and an assertive sweetness.

Thanks to this harmonious blend of terroirs and grape varieties, Veuve Ambal creates Crémants de Bourgogne with a great personality, to be shared in all simplicity.

Eric Piffaut’s son Aurélien joined Veuve Ambal in 2010. He represents the 6th generation of the family, and carries in his veins the dynamism instilled by his ancestor Marie Ambal.
