Egly-Ouriet Grand Cru

Grand Cru Champagne from Ambonnay, Bouzy and Verzenay; 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay. Wild yeast fermentation, ~50% barrel-aged, extended lees ageing, ultra-low dosage (1 g/L).

Bright, intensely ripe yet precise fruit—juicy red berries, Pinot-driven spice and depth.

Super-fine mousse with chalky, saline drive and a long, tonic finish.

Highly refined, tightly coiled and energetic; already superb but clearly built to gain complexity with short-term cellaring.
