ABOUT THIS WINE
Read Critic Reviews

Laden with expansive orchard fruits, toasted oak, and a wonderfully long finish, it justifies why so often in the past it's been described as a 'mini-Meursault'.

Textured, complex, deeply flavoured with a richness of fruit, Reflets d'Ambre' nods to the 'king' of Burgundy even down to its amber-gold glint in the glass.

The warmth of the highly-rated vintage is evident in this 'mini-Meursault'; here, imparting a delightful prominence orchard fruit upon pouring. The Reflets dAmbre is produced with fruit from the Domaine's older vines, thus offering greater intensity and a depth of flavour that is enhanced further by some ageing on lees in fine, French oak barrels. There's a light, golden tint in the glass with aromas of clove, spice, and toasted brioche; the palate is laden with ripe, expansive citrus and orchard fruit flavours that linger long on the finish.

What do the critics think?
“Fewer than 350 cases of the 2020 Mâcon-Azé ?Vieilles Vignes?, Les Reflets d?Ambre were made and Mr Wheeler took the lot, as they have done every vintage for over ten years. Referred to by those in the know as a ?mini-Meursault?, it?s made from old-vine fruit and is in peak condition with a beautifully supple texture and hints of dried, stewed and candied quince, pear and apple, and a dry to off-dry finish. It wears its high alcohol extremely lightly and is stylishly knit.”
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator Magazine

COMPARISON BASKET COMPARE

Great value. Delicious. Nutty. Buttery. Yum.

Sam

At its best, quite delicious: rich, round. Classic white Burgundy at a very good price. But there is some variation between bottles with some going over quite quickly, probably a mixture of age(2016is quite old for a cooperative) and some over tweaking by the winemaker.

Stephen

Excellent value model Chardonnay from the Maconnais. Loved it and will buy again.
