Style:

A terroir-driven vintage Champagne, combining richness, texture, and mineral precision. Elegant and gastronomic, with a distinctive saline finish.

Vineyard:

Located in Trigny, in the Montagne de Reims. Produced from 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay sourced from the Chevillevy, Jardin (planted in 2013), and Marisson (planted in 1978) parcels on clay and sandy soils. The estate is organically farmed.

Winery:

Fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged for one year in 2.2 hL French oak barrels. Bottled by hand, riddled manually, and disgorged in December 2023. Extra Brut (5 g/L dosage) with no fining or filtration.

Production:

Limited production of 930 bottles from the 2019 vintage.

Nose / Palate:

Ripe citrus, orchard fruit, brioche, and subtle oak notes. Rich and textured, with vibrant acidity, pronounced minerality, and a distinctive saline finish that reflects the wine's terroir.

Ambijus

Ambijus

Ambijus is a small, boundary-pushing project founded in Norway in 2020 by Christian & Alexander Jansen, the creative minds passionate about fermentation, gastronomy, and redefining the drinking experience. Ambijus approaches its craft with a mindset closer to a kitchen or laboratory than a traditional winery. Their philosophy - “the lab is our terroir” - reflects a focus on process, precision, and experimentation rather than vineyard origin.

Working with Nordic fruits, berries, herbs, and botanicals, each cuvée is built through layered fermentations, infusions, and careful blending to achieve structure, acidity, and depth comparable to fine wine. Produced in very limited quantities, these alcohol-free creations are vibrant, textural, and highly original. Ambijus offers a fresh, modern perspective for curious drinkers seeking complexity and craftsmanship beyond conventional wine.
