About Maison Ambroise:

Nearly 300 years passed before the Ambroise family settled in Premeaux-Prissey, a small village located near Nuits-Saint-Georges. In 1987 Bertrand Ambroise took over the domaine. Through hard work in the vineyard and his everyday passion for wine, Bertrand was able to bring his personality into the wine he crafts from 17 hectares (about 40 acres) of vines.

Bertrand and his family are passionate about vines and wine. Together they work with a unique goal in mind: "your pleasure".

Their method of working the vines and making wine is a true philosophy which was built over time around their respect for two varietals: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
