1 x 75cl. The Egly-Ouriet house was established in 1930 in the village of Ambonnay in Montagne de Reims. Current owner Francis Egly, who took charge from the 1982 vintage, was the driving force in putting this 'grower producer' champagne house on the trajectory that would result in today's cult status. The 12 hectares estate is exclusively Grand Cru, with the exception of 2 hectares of Pinot Meunier in Vrigny, and spread across the villages of Ambonnay, Bouzy, and Verzenay. 9 hectares of Pinot Noir and around 1 hectare of Chardonnay are planted on south and southeast facing slopes, which gives fruit of exceptional ripeness. Yields are kept very low and grapes are picked late in order to achieve a richer and riper style, which as a result then needs less dosage added before bottling. All wines go through extended ageing on lees up to 7 years and large parts of most wines are aged in oak barrels before the second bubble forming fermentation in bottle. This champagne is a 75cl bottle, suitable for both men and women.
This product would be a great fit for those seeking an exceptional Sparkling Wine experience, particularly for those appreciating the delicate and fragrant flavors of Grand Cru Champagne.
