Champagne Egly Ouriet Grand Cru NV (6 Bottles) France

This is simply a staggering release of this wine. As always, it’s made exclusively from low-yielding Grand Cru vines, predominantly located in Ambonnay, but also Bouzy and Verzenay. Again, as always, it’s 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay. The old cliché, Egly starts harvesting when everyone else has finished, still holds true and it’s obvious from the first sip that this wine is made from perfectly ripe fruit.
